While I would love to gain 2.5 games in a day..it is just not possible. Most it can get down to is 4 after tonight. Price needs to throw a gem.

Choo keeps our necks above the water! Did this count as a "businessman's day special"? Probably not. ;-)

BTW, Choo, being Korean, most likely does not drink the Sake of Nippon!

That makes sense. That would be huge. All we had to do is win one of the games in Detwat over the weekend and we would be right there now. Frustrating.

Valbuena sent down to AAA to make room for McAllister's start tonight. I'm gonna guess we see Phelps after tonight. Also it sounds like Brantley is gonna rest until Friday at the earliest.

Missed today's game. Was following off and on on my phone. Missed the HR by Choo but Heard Hammy's call on the post-game on the way home. Classic call by Hamilton. I don't know what to think of this team. Just when I think they are dead and buried, they pull off another improbable win. We need to win tonight and hope for a Tiger loss. It's not over yet, I guess.

I believe Seattle is starting a guy that is making his ML debut.

Going out to eat to for a birthday, so I won't be home to see most of this one. Maybe they win again if I don't watch. :)

It is so easy to get down after losing 4 in a row, but it is hardly over Next week it could be the Kitties turn to drop a few, and if we hit a winning streak we are right back. What is important is that we not let Chicago pass us up...the odds for a comeback drop dramatically if you have to catch 2 teams.

Next 12 games are against some of the worst teams in baseball before they face Detroit again. Might sound rough but I think they need to take at least 9 of those 12. If they lose tonight and Detroit wins, this afternoon's "miracle" will have been pretty much a waste.

I love the miracle wins when you go into the 9th inning with the lead. Those are the best. :/

Fukudome on fire today.

McCalister fitting to give it right back. Story of the day. The M's have matched every run we have scored.

This is gay. What a bullshit hop over Hannahan. But McCallister looks pretty rough out there.

Oh God. How long does McCallister go here?

Bullpen wasnt used this afternoon, but have been taxed a LOT recently and no off days till the offseason essentially. I say next batter that reaches he should be gone...but I will lose that.
