They’ve got to be able to put together some wins against this team. You can’t gain any ground unless you win, too. And I don’t know, the way we’re we’re hitting and the way you guys are playing, I don’t know if it’s going to work out that way, Bobby, but I’m happy to be on with you. Love your fan base. My favorite trip in all the league is to come to Detroit. This Kansas City team, not playing quite the way they did a year ago. Still exciting, still dangerous. Seth Lugo going. Talk about what you expect from him this evening. Okay, Seth, if he’s anything like he’s been, he’ll be really hard to hit. He’s got 14 pitches. Okay, I sat down with him, Bobby, just like you’re doing with me. I sat down with him and I said, “Seth, can you go over him with?” Of course, I did on TV so he could show us all of his grips. They’re legitimate. This guy’s smart. First, he’s brilliant. He went to a brainiac school down in Louisiana, wanted to be an engineer, okay? So, he’s a smart guy and he figured out all these pitches. He’s been a pitcher his whole life and finally became a starter and now he’s using all of them and he’s really good. He has the highest spin rate of a curveball of anybody in baseball. So that’s the one he likes to drop in there. Excellent change up. He’s got cutters. He’s got two seamers, three seamers, four seamers. He’s got a lot of pitches, but I can tell you that he’ll go deep into games. You know, they pitchers like him like to throw early strikes. They like to get ahead. So a lot of hitters, they’re ready. They hitting and they hit ground balls. If they’re not getting hits, they’re in trouble cuz now his pitch count is going to be good. He’ll go six, seven innings. Night game, day game, day game. Should be a fun three-game series. Better believe it, Bobby. Thanks for letting me be on with you to all those great people in Detroit. Man, what a place.

And welcome on into Kaufman Stadium. It is a beautiful night for some Detroit Tigers baseball. Greg Ga alongside Bobby Scales and partner. The boys are hot again after a tough start to the home stand against the Guardians. Came out, they’ve won their last four. And now we turn our attentions to the Royals. A big central division matchup. Tigers currently lead the Royals who sitting in fourth place in the division by seven games. So really an opportunity for the Tigers to put the Royals in a bad spot this week. Yeah, they could. There’s a long way to go, but again, don’t let the smooth taste fool you. That Royals team is still very capable. Their pitching is going to keep them in any ball game they play. They their offense has not really kickstarted at all this year. Let’s hope it stays dormant for the next three. Keys in the game brought to you by Rave and Associates by Bell’s Founders and Long Drink. Proudly distributed by Rave Associates. What are your keys to this game and the series? Yeah. Well, it starts tonight with Seth Dougal, their starter, coming back off injury. Had an injury to his middle finger. That seems to be mended up. He’s a horse. He’s going to take the ball and throw as many pitches as he needs to to get done what he needs to get done. Here’s the thing. the Tigers. He’s going to stay all around the zone with all of his pitches. His sha the his shadow percentage, that’s pitches that are just on the edge or one inch off the plate are higher as high as anybody in the league. That’s how he pitches. He changes speeds. He stays on the edges. He’s not perfect. He’s going to come in that strike zone. And when he does, the Tiger lineup has to be ready for him. You’re going to get limited opportunities. He’s not going to not going to live in the middle of the plate. Doesn’t have the stuff. But when he comes in there, because it’s a mistake by him, you got to line him up. And the pitching match up is brought to you by your local Toyota dealers. For all the latest offers, go to toyota.com. On the flip side, second start since coming off the injured list is Tiger right-hander Casey Mai. Mai took a no decision in his first start back. It’s a place where he has struggled over the years, but it was a different Casey Mai in years past. And he’s already beaten the Royals this season. His best start in his career by far against Kansas City back in April. He takes the mound tonight for the Tigers. Well, they say elite athletes sometimes have to have short memories. And yeah, he struggled against this Royals club in the past, but his last outing was one that you want to remember. He’s going to take that good feeling. He threw the ball well last time out against Cleveland. Take that good feeling he’s had previously against this team and go to work. Want some starting lineups, Mr. Scales? You got it.

The first pitch of the game is brought to you by McLaren Health, the official health care system of the Detroit Tigers. And the first inning is presented by Rocket Mortgage. Own the dream. said blue goal face Carrie Carpenter, Glabber Torres, and Colt Keith here in the Tiger first inning. Tigers coming off of a sweep of the San Francisco Giants earlier in the week. Nice off day yesterday. And I do like how AJ Hinch was able to get some of his regulars two days off by not playing them on Wednesday, so using that off day to his full advantage. Carrie comes in. He had a one for four day on Wednesday. Seth Lugo his first start since returning from the injured list. The first pitch of tonight’s game. And Carpenter swings, sends this one over to third. Mike Kel Garcia has got it. He flips on to first. Carpenters retired on one pitch and there’s one gone in the first. That’s the four seam fast from Seth Lugo. That’s just part of his arsenal. Buckle up. Get your notebook out cuz here we go. Four seam fast, curve ball, sinking two seam sinking fastball, cutter, slur, slider, change up, split, and a sweeper. First pitch to Clay Torres. His popped up foul third base side miss and one count. He’s got like 55 different pitches that he throws. You know, as a hitter, you just have to go up there and say, “Okay, I’m keying in on these four to five.” Maybe not even that many. You can’t even really key on that that many. You really got to key in on zone. Oh, one is a fast ball that misses up, evening the count on Torres at a ball and a strike. And the reality of the situation is we just rattled off. I believe that’s seriously nine pitches. But the forcing fast ball, the curve ball, the slider, the sinker, and the cutter are the ones he’s really going to go with. Torres fouls one back to the screen and he’s in a hole at a ball in two strikes. It’s right-handed hitters. It’s mainly going to be two seam slider forcing and he’ll add and subtract from that slider. So that’s a lot of times you think it’s that sweeper. It’s just a version of that slider. One, two, Torres takes upstairs. Two balls and two strikes. The umpires today, Bruce Dreman’s at third. Her chief Mark Wgner’s at second. Nate Tomlinson at first and Shane Livvenfer calls the balls and strikes as player Claver Torres calls for tie. No score just underway. Top of the first inning, opening game of a three-game series between the Tigers and the Royals. Lucco working first base of the rubber and into the windup. Deals on the 2-2 and this one’s fouled back our way. Well, partner, you warned me. We are prime. We are in it. This is prime territory right here, partner. So between Bobby and I, we have one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Nine screens in this boot as Lugo deals on the 2-2. It’s a swinging strike three Torres down on strikes. Two gone in the Tiger first for Colt Keith. That’s what he does to you. He speeds you up. He slows you down. We talk about quite a bit pitching in three dimensions. is using north and south in the strike zone, east and west in the strike zone. But the one that doesn’t get used as much in today’s game because of all the power is front to back. And the way you do that is speeding guys up. Speeding guys up. Boom. Slow them down. And then just playing with the timing. Cold Keith little half swing. It’s called strike at the top of the zone. It’s 0 and one. I asked AJ Hinch earlier today just about Seth Lugo and the pace that he works with on the mount. Not only does he have a big arsenal, the 01 misses away with the curve that time go in the counts up, but he pitches with such pace and we saw that this past Wednesday against the Giants with Landon RP and yeah, this is two straight starters as Keith finds this one up the middle and a base hit into center field and Colts on a six-game hitting streak. Yeah, good swing there by Colt Keith. We talked about when he comes in zones, he’s going to stay around the edges. When he comes in there with something you can handle, you better lay wood to it. Colt Keith got a sinker right in the middle of the plate and he whacked it through the middle for a base hit. Good swing from Colt. I asked AJ about that, what the approach is. And you know, it’s all about disrupting that pitcher’s rhythm when they have such a good rhythm when they’re sometimes. I mean, we saw Rub on Wednesday. He was throwing pitches with 12 seconds left on the pitch clock. And it’s all about how you use your timeouts and when to step out and when to know to call that time. First pitcher Riley Green is swatted out to deep right field. Brave going back, looking up and that ball is crushed and gone. Touch of all time. Riley Green. That’s number 13 on the year. It comes with two out here in the top of the first inning. And the Tigers take a two nothing lead on the Royals. Yeah, it’s a cutter middle. Middle middle, partner. We told you you can’t miss when he comes in the middle of that strike zone. Riley Green just annihilated a cut cutter over the bullpen in right field. That’s a long way in any ballpark, but in this one as well. I mean, that cleared the Royals bullpen and about halfway up the seats beyond that bull. Two down and Spencer Torlson will bat. Torqulson did not play on Wednesday. It’s two nothing Tigers as Torque picks strike at that last home run. Brought to you by Little Caesars. Order online for delivery or pizza portal pickup. So, a thunderous blow by Riley Green. It was set up by the two out single up the middle by Gold Keith. The Tigers with a two nothing advantage as Torque lines this one to second. Jonathan India will squeeze it and the side is retired. Good start for the Tigers. Two-run home run from Riley Green. We head to the bottom of the first.

Jonathan India leads off for the Royals. And the first pitch is the four seamer for a called strike one. This game is brought to you in part by Northville Lumber, the official lumber yard at the Detroit Tigers radio network. Two nothing Tigers lead it on the Riley Green homer. It’s pitched to India. Misses in with a slerve and it evens the count up at a ball and a strike. Yeah, Casey Mai out there with his familiar Arsenal scoring split sler slider and the sinker as well. One- one from Mai. A wave and a miss on a slider away and he’s ahead of India. Had a ball in two strikes. a couple different versions of that slider. He’s got that really short bullet slider. This kind of one he throws for strikes is more cutter-ish than anything else. That big slerve has some sweep and some depth to it. And he’s got a more conventional slider that he’ll throw strike the ball. A one two from my fast ball inside. Count goes even two balls, two strikes. Key with Casey though is got to throw that force seam not both up in the zone but down to make that split more effective. Occasionally he’s got to run it into right-handed hitter. Two-2. India swings, pieces a foul on the third base side. And there was that splitter right there and dotted the inside corner of the plate with it. All India did was foul it away. Casey coming off of a no decision in his last start. It was his first start since returning from the injured list. Went five innings against the Guardians. Two runs, one of them, and gave up a homer. Worked five solid innings that day with a walk and six strikeouts. Two two from my slide of misses the way and it runs the count full India Bobby Wit Jr. Anthony Pasquantino top five in this Royals lineup very dangerous three and two the count on India M with the payoff hung on hit in the air to left going back on the ball as Riley still drifting at the warning track backpedals a few more steps and he’ll make the catch is retired for the first out here in the Royals first bring up Bobby Wit Jr. Whit 290 hitter on the year. He’s been slumping lately, one for three with two RBI’s. He drove in two of the three. The Royals scored on Wednesday to beat rather beat the Cincinnati Reds to avoid a sweep. First pitch fast balls in for a strike. That good heater at the bottom of the zone right the knees. find by Mai a1 and in the air to left well struck green going back turns around and it is Bobby Whit Jr. number six on the year and just like that the Royals cuted to the Tigers lead. It’s a two to one ball game. Yeah, just a slur. One of those sliders he throws. He got in the middle of the plate. Bobby Whit was waiting on him. This lineup, it they can be poke, they can be dangerous. They haven’t been collectively all year, but this guy number seven in blue, he’s dangerous all the time. Even when he’s not dangerous, he’s dangerous. Here’s Vinnie Pasino. Two to one ball game. Tigers ahead first inning. Mas delivers. First pitch high and away. And that’s the ball. Was Whit’s first home run since May the 7th. Gone 18 games without a homer. Homer’s in his first at bat tonight. The one ball count on Paspantino. High eyes. Fires this one hammered out to deep right. Hooks it. Foul and it’s a one and one count. Asino 251 hitter, eight homers. He’s driven in 30. Calling a strike as Mai rocks and deals. Back to the net. Foul. One and two. Tigers took three of four from the Royals back in April at Com Park. Casey had one of his better starts of the year. It worked seven innings that day. Just allowed one run on four hits. It came on a homer. Walked one, struck out three. A one two. Aspentino takes it just off the outside edge with a splitter, evening the count up with two balls, two strikes. Third baseman McKinstry way off the line. Sweeny shaded up the middle at short. This one lined out to right. A base hit for pass from Tuda. Quickly up with it. Carrie Carpenter. That’s backto-back hits for Salvador Perez. Man on and one down first inning. Yeah, that was a splitter that just floated. Didn’t quite get where he wanted to. He wanted that strike. The ball right there. Didn’t get it down. Stayed in the bottom of the strike zone. As Patino reaches out, looks at right field for a clean single. That’ll bring up the veteran Salvador Perez. A bit of a down year at the plate. Such a dangerous hitter. He’s been doing it for so long. Kansas City first pitch. Just foul back our way. Heads up, partner. Right above us. We are We are in. We are in. And he’s the one that you caught last year. He is. I need to pay more attention. I was writing a note in my book. You got to be on your toes here in Kansas City, folks. 01 from Mai. This one lined up the line and right in foul and it’s nothing and two. Maybe maybe Salvador Perez has something against you. I don’t know. We’ve never met. I mean, I think I played against when he was like 18 or 19 in AAA when I was the old guy in AAA. It’s a no ball two strike count. Infield looks for two as Mai settles in, kicks and fires. That one in the dirt. Blocked by Dylan Dingler kept it in front. Keith Pascantino at first. Tigers in the field today. Riley Greens in left. Wel Perez at center. Carrie Carpenters in right. Zack McKinstry at third. Grace Sweeney at short. Glab Torres at second. Spencer Torqulson at first. Battery of Dylan Dingler and Casey Mai. One away here in the bottom of the first inning. Two to one. Tigers on top. Pascantino the runner at first as Mai is delivered. This one hit in the air down the right field line and foul will do it again at one and two. Casey M already 18 pitches into this first inning. Only one out reported. Backto back Royals hits the tying run on base. A one two from M hit in the air to left. Riley Green backing up on it. Hasworth makes the catch. Two down. A good pitch that time by Mai on a sinker that darted in towards Salvador Perez. And he had to fight that one off. Flies out. Yeah, he did. Got it in there. And that’s good. That’s what Casey needs to do. Whether it’s the sinker or the force, he’s got to go in there with that fast ball. One for effect like he did got the out weak contact with Sal Perez, but also two to set up anything he wants to do away the right-handed hitter. Two down. Mike El Garcia having a tremendous year. He’s on a 13-game hitting streak and he’ll take a slider down and away from ball one. Tigers two Royals one here in the bottom of the first inning. Runner on first is Vinnie Pasantino. High settles in above belt deals on the 10. Strike evens the count up. One of the things that you had remarked every time we saw Casey last season was establishing that inside part of the play. It sets up so much against these right-handed hitters and he’s been doing a lot more of that this season and the results have been there. This one is swung on grounded deep in the hole and through the left side. A big hit. Garcia will extend his hitting streak. Just stuck the bat out. Hooked that sler splitting McKinstry and Sweeney. Yeah, just a slur that again it was up a little bit. Casey’s got hurt on some pitches that were up in the zone. That’s no different. This time just gets it through the 56 hole on the left side of the diamond. Another base hit this boil off. A homer and two singles for Kansas City here in the first. And Mai deals with Drew Waters. He delivers first pitch outside. Ball one on a splitter. First of three here in Kansas City. First of seven on the road trip. Tigers stay in the central division the entire trip going up to the White Socks beginning of the week. The 10 caught off foul. That one will reach the upper deck. Third base side and a strike. The ninth start of the year for Casey Mines. former firstrounder of the Titans. As Quentino off second, Garcia from first, the 1-1 hit in the air to right. Gary Carpenter long run. Can he get there? Reaches up and Gary Carpenter. He makes the running catch up against the wall to retire the side and keep the Tigers in the lead. How about that? What a play. He absolutely sold out to go get that ball. catches the ball by the step into the warning track and turns and the next thing he knows he has got a face full of Kaufman Stadium wall. He’s sold out. Make that catch. What a play. Take a hack at guessing which baseball player or man said the following. I really don’t know what to say. I’m just uh so happy I gave something. These people cheer. We all did. I mean it was a great game. Both teams played incredible. It was a great game.

Thanks for being part of the road to 100K. and hit exactly got a little dicey late in the ball game, but Tommy came in, shut the door, preserving the sweep. Perez off first. Three-0 pitch. McKinstry looks at it. It’s a cold strike and it’s three and one. Yeah, with Lugo, when you get plus counts, you really have to shrink your zone because he’s still going to pick. He’s not going to give in. Doesn’t walk, guys, but he’s not going to give in and throw it right down the middle. Three balls in a strike on McKinstry. Ludo delivers this one hit in the air to left sending the left fielder through waters back. Settles Hunter takes the catch and there’s one away Lugo he’s always been known as a bit of a nibbler. Yeah. But it’s a nibbler that is effective. Very much so. And like I said, he’s he he is unafraid to throw all of these pitches at any time and any count to either side of the plate to either handed hitter. His unpredictability is is why he has lasted this long and been as effective as he’s been in the major league. Perez off first, one out here in the second. Tigers lead it two to one. Lugo deals to Dylan Dingler who cracks one deep to left going back. That ball is crushed and gone. Touch of all time. Dylan Dingler number five. He was hunting fast ball on the first pitch. Got it middle and did not miss it. setting that one 105.6 off the bat into the Tiger bullpen and left. That ball was absolutely smoked, G. That’s just a 92 mph heater right down the middle. You don’t miss those in the show. That ball went a long way and he knew it the second he touched it. That’s another Little Caesar’s pizza home run. Order online for delivery or pizza portal pickup. Then his boys scattered in that Tiger bullpen, too. Here’s Trey Sweeney. Sends this one to left. Curling towards the seat. Long run for Waters. And it plays off the sidewall. Waters like he was primed to jump to get it. Just didn’t pull the trigger. Long strike one. Dylan Dingler. Couple of days off. Looking fresh out there today. Good swing right there. All four Tigers runs coming on homers. They’ve quieted this Coffin Stadium crowd early. The L1 on Sweeney is up and the count goes even at a ball in a strike. Lugo’s the type of pitcher that will give you length every time he takes them out. Interesting to see how Matt Caparo plays this today given that it’s his first outing off the entrance as there’s Paul Strike on Sweeney. Takes it one and two. Yeah, I mean he he’s kind of a throwback. I mean he’ll go 115 120 pitches. I’m not sure he’s going to do that coming back like you said first start off the injured list. Obviously the performance is going to dictate some of that too. He’s already given up four tonight after an inning and a third. A one-two pitch get in the air fing. This is a guy that has had success in his career against the Tigers. Three and one record at 278 RA in five career starts against Detroit. His first loss against the Tigers was back on April 19th. He was out dooled by Casey Mines. Hangs this one, but it’s fouled up the line into the netting down the right field line by Sweeney. It’s one and two. It’s interesting how that works. See another uniform for whatever reason. Just have a level of confidence. One, two, it off the mound. Waiting back behind second is Bobby Whit Jr. He will blub it on to first. That’s out number two. Hit it on the screws, but still the wrong spot. When you have Bobby Whit Jr. out there, he plays that carum off the mound just beautifully. He does most things beautifully, especially Adam to his left where there was once an Achilles heel in his game was to his backhand side. Look at the numbers. He sealed that up and he’s unbelievable defensive shortstop. Here’s Carrie Carpenter. Four to one Tigers in the second. Carrie takes up and away and that’s ball one early on in his career and he’s on the way up. Triple A. The question was, was he going to be able to stay at shortstop? You move him to third base. Yeah, he answered those pretty well. Lugo with the 10. Carpenter takes it upstairs on a slider and checked the swing. Didn’t go. Almost pulled the trigger on that pitch. Two and0. Go and deal. Harper puts this one on the ground up the line at first. Diving play by Pascino, but it’s foul. Talk about premier defender. Vinnie Pascantino is definitely one of those. He is a good defender at first base. Very smooth around the bag. Does such a nice job on some of the balls in the dirt you see come across the diamond. He’s talked about it before. You’re an infielder and you know you make a play, you just get rid of it. Your guys going to either stretch it, take it out of the dirt, or come off and just save save you an error. That gives you an immense amount of confidence to to freedom to make plays and maybe throw balls that you may not throw to first base first base go there. Aspeno is very good at that. Two-1 pitch.

Bottom third of the Royals lineup. One-1 ground ball. Ray Sweeney was shaded up the middle. Doesn’t have to move his feet much. He’ll scoop and flip on to first. Rave is retired. And there’s one gone. Casey took a swipe at that behind his back and then realized, let me just let this go cuz I got a guy back there. Sure enough, Sweenie was right where he was supposed to be. Makes a play. Up Michael Massie. Tiger Injury Report is brought to you by McLaren Health, official health care system of the Detroit Tigers. All kinds of news and notes from the injury segment of the program earlier today with AJ Hinge as Casey deals to Michael Massie off the fast for a strike. It’s all in one. Jackson Job headed to the injured list. A one from Miles. Taking a little bit low on the split that time even at a ball in a strike. One-1 hit. Dylan Tinkler takes it to one and two on Michael Matson. Comes in 12th hitter on the year. Make sure I get this right, Bobby. Yep. Right elbow flexor strain for Jackson. That is this is up and away. Two and two. The count on Massie, but it’s a grade one. And that is the least severe that you can have. Two swing and a miss. He got him. Splitter away. The first strike out for Casey Mai down in the inning. Yeah, really good action on that splitter. 89 miles an hour. look just like a fast ball coming out. Gets to the plate and dives down and away from the left-handed hitting Cal Lisbell. That’s exactly what he’s looking to do. Get throw that fast ball down like he did earlier in the at bat. Work that splitter off of it. Textbook right there for Casey. Equipment malfunction for Dylan Dingler. He’s got to get a new glove. Other notes from today. Parker Meadows is expected to play nine innings both today and tomorrow for Triple A to lead. Reese Olsen is here with the team in Kansas City. He’s expected to throw a bullpen session tomorrow. Alex Cobb, he was on a rehab assignment tonight with Single A West Michigan. I think perhaps the most encouraging news was what happened last night in Toledo as the first pitch Kyle Isel is taken for a strike on a slider. That was Sawyer Gibson Long. Five and a third of one-run ball. Gave up a home run. That was all he gave up yesterday for the Hens. The 01 pitch. One misses away and got up at a ball and a strike. Yeah, he he’s a guy that I think could really help this Tiger team at some point this year. And not exactly sure when that may be if he’s eligible to come off and take it option down. One big swinging miss on a splitter. No, he may not. don’t exactly know what’s going to happen, but he’s flashed some really good stuff at the end and had got hurt last year, missed pretty much the entire season. But Sawyer Gibson Long being on the end is a really good sign. Uh decent help this Tiger pitch one two on Isbel. Spike in the dirt off two balls, two strikes. Four to one Tigers leading here in the bottom of the second inning. And they are rightfully so. taking their time with it. He’s coming off of two major surgeries. Absolutely. You want to make sure that there’s no regression. Two-2 hard hit and foul down the first baseline. That was close. Very close. We’ll get a good look at it here on our FanDuel sports monitor. the splitter that Dylan Dingler wanted down. Tapped the glove before Casey Mice threw it, indicating to him, go ahead and spike this one. I got you. Didn’t get it down there. We saw a similar play in the Giants series, Bobby, where ball that the Giants thought was fair but was foul was unchallengeable as this one is lifted in the air. Shortbrite sinking and it falls in front of the charging Carrie Carpenter for a two out single. Yeah, that’s just tough luck for Casey Mai. Great call by Dylan Dingler. Good execution by Casey M. He went in to the left-handed hitting his spell. Got it in there and he just muscled it over the head of labor to at second base for a jam single. Sometimes you execute your pitch you want, the guy just beat you. It happens. So frustrating for pitchers when you make that really good pitch and then that happens right there. Here’s Jonathan India. flips the line up to the top. India takes a called strike. India worked to count full and flew out to the left fielder Riley Green in the first and Tigers four Royals one here in the second. Guys looking to put up a zero. He’s got two outs and a man on first. He offers up on the 01 swatted foul first base side up the upper deck and two. Tigers have done it to this point with the long ball. Pair of two-run homers on the Osu upstairs who strikes the count on Jonathan India. Eyes long hold at the belt. Inching away versus is belt. Eyes deals slider. This is away. Two and two. This is where get away get ahead of these guys. You want to go ahead and execute pitches in the zone and put them away. You don’t want to dance around it. Not saying obviously he’s not trying to do that, but sharpening that execution when you get in leverage counts. been so vital to the Tiger fishing success over the last couple years. Two-2 got him a swinging strike three on the splitter. That’s a big out right there with Whit Jr. coming up next. Mai with two strikeouts in the frame. We head to the third.

Beautiful night for baseball in Kansas City. The 01 pitch from Luga away up. It’s the right time of year to be in Kansas City. It gets hot here in summertime. Yes, it does. the one up and inside. Two balls in strike. I think at one time the stadium was the old Astro here in St. Louis. That’s unbelievable. Two and one to count on Glabber Torres who went down on strikes his first time through. Go fires up and inside. Three and one. Flavor was the table setter on Wednesday against the Giants. Had a pair of hits in that ball game. Lugo into his wind up. 3-1 on Torres taking full strike. Quarterline pitch. Runs it full. Yeah, that was at top of the zone. Lot of ball up. Not reaches. 50/50 ball didn’t go away. Usually the veterans get the members bounce. Veteran pitcher too. So kind of a wash. They cancel each other out. Yeah. Three and two. The count on Glaver Torres. Payoff. Breaking ball. That one does miss away and it’s fall four and Torres cross his 26th walk of the year. Yeah, good at bat there by Glabber Torres. You have to be patient with Lugo. He’s going to nibble a bunch. Get him in the zone. You got to bust him. Tigers have done a really good job of that already early on in this game. But also too, he doesn’t walk any but that time walk at bat coming into this start. 15 walks in 58 innings of work. Lugo sets his heels. Her ball misses away and that’s ball one on Colt Keith. Keith got the party started in the first with a two out single extending the inning. Riley Green who hammered a ball with the seats in right a taken low struggling to find his command in this third inning. Hawking Glabber Torres and now falling behind two and0 on Colt Keith. Single for Keith in the first sending his hitting streak six straight games. Two and0 count on Keith. The pitch outside the corner called Strike. You’re right, partner. Lug doesn’t miss often in the zone, but when he does, you have to be in a tackle. One pitch wave and a miss on a curve. Evens it up at two and two. That even that pitch right there, that was a change. That was curve ball that was down probably at the bottom of the zone. And yeah, Colt swung through it, but it was a good pitch for him to hit. We’ve seen him smash that ball down to the zone like that. Now with two strikes, just have the battle. Two and two. The count on Colt Keith, runner on first is Claver Torres. Two two pitch in in the air. Shallow left field. Mel Garcia drifting back, waving his arm, says he’s got it. He does. And that’s the first out brought to you in part by Meyer, official partner of the Detroit Tigers. And here is Riley Green. Did not get the distance on his first home run, but there are seats located above the Royals bullpen. He cleared the first tier and was into that second tier of seley takes a sinker for a strike. Settled into the bottom of the zone. It’s 0 and one. There’s plenty to spare on that ball. Wasn’t a cheap. No, not at all. P. 01 taken up our great engineer Jenny Ho 429 as usual. All in the strength to count on Riley Green. He’ll go pick and deals. Riley puts this one in the air. Foul third base and it’s nothing two. Hoffman Stadium symmetrical 330 down the lines for 10 to straightaway center field. 10 foot home run line all the way around the outfield. Lugo picks on first Torres back in safely ahead. All in two strikes on Riley Green for short leaded first as Lugo sets and deals up and outside up two balls, two strikes that partner, it’s symmetrical, but it gets big and it gets big in a hurry. 387 in those right and left center field gaps effective out the 410. But how it gets there, it blows out very quickly. You’ll see a lot of triples in this ballpark on the right field line. 22 and he gets Riley to swing and miss on a fast ball up and away for Lugo. That’s his second strikeout. There are two gone here in the third inning for Spencer Corpson. Had a hard line out to the second baseman. Jonathan India first. Yeah, doesn’t that’s a good example of what Lugo does. Time ladder a little bit higher. They fouled it off then went even higher probably through it or homerred off the blue go back on April 19 fouls went back screen at 0 and one that cat reflect ready I thought you were ready I knew you were ready balls in a strike on pitch taken slider top of the zone hold strength That’s the other thing with Seth Rico not afraid to throw any pitch in any count and he’ll throw into any strikes all over. I mean his his heat maps he he’s fascinated to study because he’s he’ll literally I won’t say there’s no pattern but there’s patterns unbeknownst to us. He knows what he’s doing out there. He calls his own game. Oh two misses in on a curve ball. It’s a good take and court all in two strikes. And as a hitter, you have one job as you prepare for a series or that’s try to eliminate some of the stuff you throw. It’s hard to do so one two basketball up the ball’s two strikes. Two oouncez man on first. Labor Torres led off the inning with a walk home run driven in 40 this year. Two got him looking. Curve ball top of the zone. So after the leadoff walk, Lugo gets the sign in order. It’s four to one Tigers as we go to the last of the third here in the home of Detroit Tigers baseball presented by Mike Preston Crust Pizza from Little Caesars is the GOAT, the greatest of all time.

Bobby Whit Jr. blasted a solo home run off of Mines in the first inning. Casey settled down significantly in the second. Gave up two out single before striking out Jonathan India. Benning Junior from come to the plate comes back at it. An outside corner fast for a strike. Evening count. Casey M goes for the Tigers tonight. Ter Scooble gets the ball tomorrow afternoon here in Kansas City. The one seems out of the way. Goes two balls in a strike. After he hit it, first home run had connected on since May 7. Games without. Swats this one up the middle. Backhanded by Glaver Torres behind second. Flips on to first. Good stretch by Torbolson. just keeps that big toe on the bag long enough to retire with. Pause for station identification on the Detroit Tigers radio network. The series against the Royals is brought to you by Mastercraft heating, cooling, plumbing, and electric. Bottom of the third, 4-1 Tigers lead the Royals. First pitch to Vinnie Pascantino with one away and the base is empty. This is outside and that’s ball one. Partner, what are you seeing different from Casey M from that first inning to M. Oh, his execution is better. The ball’s great. He wants to be in which is away. And the count goes even at the moment strike. It’s two and0. He wouldn’t fool anybody early on. I’ve got four hard hit balls in that first inning alone, including the home run obviously by Whit Jr. But there was a lot of stuff in the middle. He got out of that inning safely. 200 taken away past Martino’s ahead. Three balls and no strikes. Pascino singled his first time. That could have been a very different scenario leaving that first inning. He’s tightened it up here since three come back at him with a fast ball for a strike. Tigers two in the first, two in the second have this 4-1 lead in the bottom of the third. eyes on the 3-1. It’s taken away and that’s a walk to pass from Tina. He’s on base for the second time in this ball game. Brings up Salvador Perin. Yeah. 3-1 slider. He tried to get on the back door. Felt like he could locate that pitch in the zone. Get back in it for 3-2. Gets up to Porsche. Doesn’t get back in the back door. Pascal’s on with a walk. Salvar Perez jammed him on a fly out to left in the first. There’s called strike with a slur that time. Perez hitting just 186 his last 17 games. Eyes kicks and deals. This one hit the air to left. In fact, Riley Green. It’s sailing and it’s over his head and one hops the wall. Ascertino heads to third. He’ll be held there into second base for the double. Go Salvador Perez. And the Royals have runners on second and third and only one out here in the third inning. And that was a splitter on the bottom rail that didn’t do a whole lot. Salvi over the course of his career. Waffle balls down into zone. He goes down and gets that one. Beats Riley Green over his head. Riley does a nice job of playing to carry him off the wall and getting it in to Trey Sweeney, that lead cut off man in that double cut home. Pascalino’s at third. Perez is at second base. Second and third. Mel Garcia singled in the first. High delivers outside and ball one. Garcia came into this game 380. The average of five extra base hits and eight RBI’s on that 13 now 14game hitting streak. Second and third from Kansas City. 10 from M. taken outside. Two balls, no strikes. Partner, I thought you described the great enjoying the game. Subscribe and hit the bell bell so you never miss an MLB broadcast. We go live every day. WBC the show, the sports channel that belongs to God. Folded hands. Thanks for being part of the road to 100K. There’s not a ton of padding out there right now. So the padding starts in the corner. It’s a scream in front of the bullpen. Tiger bullpen located in left. Royals bullpen located in right. And then it’s a scoreboard from the edge of the bullpens until about almost center field. Three-0 pitch is up and away. Ball four. And that’ll load the bases on a pair of blocks and a double. That may prompt a Chris Feder Mountain. Does it? It does indeed. 15 pitch inning for Casey Mice. He’s at 59 in the game. Chris Feder making the long walk long to the mouth and then it’s padding on the wall in center field here at Coffman Stadium. So you get all kinds of different cars. Yeah. Depending on where the ball is hit and the think you would do if you come here early enough and watch the guys go through the paces even though this outfield of Green Perez and Terry Carpenter have played here quite a bit being in the central division. Every single day they go out there and they’ll hit balls into the corners. They’ll hit balls off the off the chain link in front of the bullpen. They’ll hit balls off the chain in front of the the advertising boards. They’ll go to center field. They switch those pads out the last time they were here from or get new pads for the season. So, they leave those thrown on turn. So, likely Riley had already had that ball three or four times in the work that he does for Lumbard and Anthony posting and Gary Jones out there to work with the outfield. Bases are loaded for Kansas City. Drew Waters is the batter. He nearly put one off the wall and right. Great play by Terry Carpenter in the first inning to retire the side. First pitch from Mai. Swung online and it’s half the glove of a diving Trey Sweeney into center field. Aspito scores. Here comes Perez. He’ll score. It’s two-run single for Drew Waters. And it’s a one-run game at four to three. Yeah, Waters got a slider away from him. It was down. And not sure if Sweeney didn’t see it or got a late break on it, but it looked like he dove almost over the baseball. That ball was lace. Let’s not get it confused. It was 110 off the bat, but it looked like he got a little bit of late start. He felt like he could have caught it. Pounded the dirt after that ball went through and two runs scored. Mai has surrendered three, but the Tigers still lead it 4-3 here in the bottom of the third inning. Runner on second is Mikel Garcia. Drew Waters is at first and the batter is John Ray. Fourth game being called up from TripleA Omaha. He’ll take high and away and that’s ball one. Action begins down in the Tigers bullpen. I believe it’s Grant Purder calling. No strikes on Ray. Pitch making outside corner pole. Strike one. High may have got a little bit help there from the home plate umpire. Rave has one for his first 10 at the plate. It’s coming up for the big leagues. Sitting over 300 with Omaha in 44 games. 43 Tigers leaded third inning. On the 1-1 taken low, two balls in a strike. These are these misses aren’t big misses. I mean, he’s right around the zone, but they’re misses nonetheless. He has not been in that count very often tonight. You can tell he’s fighting it right. Yeah. Two-1 taken. Splitter bottom of the zone. Called a strike. Two and two. Yeah. Well pitch right there right at that bottom rail. And it is okay. I saw a lefty down there, but it’s Bo Risky. Yeah, Riskey got up. Bur sat down. You saw the same thing. So my eyes did not see enough. Two on, one away. Mai’s pitch count continues to grow here in this third. He deals on the 2-2. Rave a swinging strike three. Strike out number three for Casey M. Two down in the inning for Michael Massie. Yeah, good combination right there. He threw him the previous pitch with the splitter right on that bottom rail. He threw him another slider on the back door. It was up a little bit. Got away with one nonetheless. Braves swung and miss. Left-handed hitting Michael Massie at the plate. Two on, two out. One- run lead for the Tigers as Massie cuts and misses at a high fast back from Dingler to second. Not in time to get Mel Garcia. I was wondering if they were going to have something on cuz Mel Garcia was getting really really aggressive secondary leads. Miller Dingler got a fast ball. for a strike and he threw from his knees and it was an absolute pullet down to Sweeney at second base. Garcia just gets that right foot in there ahead of the tag. Dart from Dingler right at the bag at second. Somehow Garcia able to sneak his foot in there. Oh, one from M.’s not falling a strike. Two runs in for the Royals here in the third. Tigers with a fourth lead over Kansas City. Basement Street even with the bag. Sweeney is short playing in the back pocket of Michael Garcia. Pass fouls one away. Third base side. One and two. C is at second. W at first. is hanging on by a run here in the third. Mai, he deals. Got it. Swinging strike three on a high fast. So after the two-run single, Mai battles back, strikes out a pair. Tigers maintain their lead. It’s 4-3 Detroit. As we go to the fourth here on the Detroit Tigers radio network presented by Meer Echo America. Every game night is a chance to go big with MLB Big Inn.

Just on the edge evening count fourth inning is brought to you by Wallside Windows local and family owned celebrating 81 years Michigan’s leader in replacement window one from Luggo pounded ground foul at home plate the ball in two strikes one two from Luga away. It’s two and two count. Interesting character out there. I say character spirit, I guess you could say. Even with Salvi back there, as veteran as he is, he calls pretty much his own game, he’s got a pitch on his belt that knows Salvi what he wants to throw. Two two tying outside, runs a pull. Think they have to have a specially made pitch for know how he does it. No kid. I don’t know if there’s enough button on that. 3-2 on Parrot wide up the middle. Base hit to center. He’s two for two. Good piece of hitting. That was a sinker. Is up. Went with pitch. Drove it back to the box and the Tigers have their lead off and aboard for the third straight inning. That’s good. Wentz said trying to do too much with this pitch. It was up sinker. He jumped on a first pitch. Breaking ball curve ball in his first at bat. He sends that one right back from where it came. Good hardline drive single to lead off the fourth inning. Home runs have been a bit of an issue for Seth Lugo this season. He has given up today now 11. That’s called strike on attack. It’s a no and one count. So if he has to go to like pitch eight, nine and 10, he has to like double tap. I don’t maybe double click on it for the other the L1 breaking ball taken for a strike. He’s in a hole 02. First home runs he has yielded in a game this season of four against the Yankees back on April 14th. Start prior to coming to America. Yu high and away.

Might be to India has flips the second for one. Whit Junior on to first. Not in time. Zack motoring up that line to avoid the double play. Fielder’s choice. They get the out at second. Yeah, nice job by Wel Pettis right there. Slow developing play. India did made the right thing. Get an aggressive feed to second base, but Wel Pettis was all over Bobby Wick. Clean, legal, couldn’t complete the double play. Here’s Dylan Dingler homerred on the first pitch of the at bat in the second. 4-3 Tigers lead it here in the fourth. Takes called strike on a curveball. Going to go on a limb and say Lugo’s probably not going to give him the force seamer down the middle like he did that last time. Probably going to stay away from that. Having a tremendous here at the plate came in hitting 289. Shacks on a ball up and in. Count up and a ball and a strike. came brought to you in part by Bluec Cross Blue Shield of Michigan ready to help follow by the batteries. A one and one count on Dingler had 65 pitches but as Bobby pointed out earlier show routinely goes up over 100 pitches in his start. Long hold at the belt this time from Lugo. The 1-1 a wave and a miss. A breaking ball. One and two. Big overhand curve ball. 77 miles hour. Have a lot of horizontal field. It’s hard to even put a comp on a guy like runner goes. The pitch is up and in. Throw down from Perez. He didn’t know the ball got away in Hitry Swipes to second base. That’s his fourth stolen base of the year. But Salvador Perez has a cannon. Salvador Perez has caught a lot of games. His catching exchange is still really really good. He threw an absolute bullet down to Johnson India. He boxed. He does it. That is dead right. Gets it right in the heel of the glove. The flank. Yeah. On the money. Breaking ball missed away. Runs pull.

First and second, one gone. The pitch lifted in the air. Wow. Face side of the seats. Do it again at two and two. Made innovations at this ballpark over the years, but it still has sort of that old ballpark charm. It does. They they’ve done a very nice ball job with this ballpark. Two-2 down and in.

He has surrendered three runs in the first three innings today. Defensive changes for the Tigers. Zack McKinry moves from third to short. Andy Abanz remains in the ball game. He’s at third base. You got cooking over there, partner. Oh, I thought you had your reads on. I thought you were ready to do a read. Nope. No hot plates up here. Kyle Isel to lead it off here for the Royals in the fourth. First pitch is taken for a strike from Casey Mai and it’s an 0 and1 count after the debacle that was the ludicrous read in Toronto. Bestowed all ludicrous reads to Bobby Scales. We’ll talk about that later. That’s high and away. Kind of evens out, but a ball and a strike. Been an up and down night for Casey Mai. struck out fours give it up three pitch is away on Isbel goes to two and one is Bellbell and then the top with India and Whit Jr. Grant herder is warming in the Tiger bullpen 2-1 Aken called strike pull away two and two you got to believe that Casey M probably going to get Herder probably get ready for passo if something come guys get on early two two hard hit up the middle and it’s into center field for a base hit by Isbel is two for two in this game and flips the lineup to the top Jonathan India with the fine run on first base that splitter tonight just have has had some inconsistent action thrown some really good ones thrown some ones like that just didn’t do it live. That was one of the ladder right there. Is goes on with a base hit. And on first, India is 0 for two. Has flown to left and struck out swinging. Highs from the stretch. Third base side of the rubber. Deals. India shows. Pulls it back and takes strike one. The Royals team that all season long has struggled to score runs. Three runs or fewer in 37 of their 57 games this season. So they’ve hit their apex for today. Right. Here’s the L1 swing and a foul back and it’s nothing in two. Chance catch up with Kansas City broadcast team earlier today and they said, you know, it’s it’s been pretty consistent. Anywhere from two to four runs a night. Yeah. And it’s just a matter of can the pitching hold up, right? And when it does, they win those games when they don’t. Everybody’s saying, “Why can’t the Royals score runs?” Here’s the O2. Poked into shallow center. This is in no man’s land. Sweeny says he’s got it and he drops the ball on the over the shoulder attempt. The throw into second base and Claver Torres is there, but in safely is Isel. Heads up base running by Kyle Isel. saw that one was going into no man’s land and Zach McKinstry did everything he could to get to that baseball but just clanked off his glove. Riley Green had no shot at it. Yeah. And I and I think there’s no mistake in that. That was just a very tough play. As Zach was going out there, he was waving off Riley Green. Riley wasn’t close to this ballpark. Got to play pretty deep. There’s Bobby Whit Jr. He’ll take a strike. So not the guy you wanted up with two ahead on get on base. India first is Bell second. Let’s go as the base hit as we expected. That’s how eight hits for the Royals in the first four innings tonight. Nobody out to aboard. Mai’s coming set. Deals on the 01. Whit sends this one in the air center field. Wel Perez says he’s got it. He’s in front of the warning track. He’ll make the catch. Both runners will tag and both will advance. He hit it to the deepest part of the park. And now the Royals with runners on second and third and one out. Identical situation to what we saw in the third inning with two on and one out. Mers was able to get out of it. Yeah, deep fly ball in the right center field. Wentzel Pettis got back there. Would have loved to have seen think if he could have taken a few more steps to get around that ball. maybe wasn’t able to cuz it drove him back a little bit. Tigers are going to appeal over to first to see if India left early. He did not. And here comes the skipper. And that’s going to be the end of the day for Casey M. But the left-handed hitting Vinnie Pascantino coming to the plate. So we’ll step aside for this Tiger call to the bullpen.

One and05 RA does have two saves as well. He’s also started them all. Got a tough one here with Vinnie Pascantino who’s one for one with a walk and a run scored. Royals runners on second and third. One out here in the fourth inning. Tigers lead 4-3. Pascantino takes a strike. Starts him with a sinker and it’s an 0 and one count. This is why Pascantino is so dangerous in this spot. And those lefties gives you a good at every time. Isbell second or rather Isbel third India second 01 wave and a miss on a sweeper away. Good sequencing there from Herder with the sink away with the sweep and he’s ahead 02. Yeah, I love that can run that sinker in then sweep it away from him.

Fouls it off his foot again and a ball in two strikes. You know, as they should be in this situation. The only reason I mentioned that is because of how Grant Herder is pitching past Coutino right now. Through that sinker in, swept away twice. If you run that sinker in, even if you get a broken bat ground ball, it’s probably going to get a run in ahead. 43, fourth inning. Curter on the one, two side. Two balls, two strikes. Tall lefty from Canton, Georgia. Grant Purder. First onto the scene last season. A multi-aceted reliever to two. Got it. Oh, strike three on the sinker. Two gone here in the fourth. Excellent sequence from Dingler and Herder right here. Sweeper, sweeper, sweeper. Boom. Just a dart blowing away pass. Martino locks him up. He knew it. They will intentionally load the bases here. Thor Perez will be walked. And it’s pretty much a pick your poison situation. Do you want Perez to face a lefty or do you want Grant Herder to face one of the hottest bats in the American League and Mikel Garcia? Base is loaded, two outs. Turder fires first pitch down and it nearly hit him. That’s ball one. Garcia went four for 12 with a double and three runs scored in the Royals series against the Cincinnati Reds earlier in the week. All in no strikes. Herder kicks deal in the air to right. Harry Carpenter taking a few steps to his left now backs up, makes the catch. Grant her gets the job done.

First pitch at the bottom of the zone. A cold strike. It’s 0 and one. Carpenter. Glbert Torres. Colt Keith in the fifth inning. Both starters out of the game. 01 and a miss on a slider to count on Carpenter. Tigers jumped ahead in the first inning. All four of their runs coming on a pair of two-run homers. Riley Green in the first and Dylan Dingler with a bullet in the second. 02 on Carpenter swinging a foul base side. We’ll do it again. Betty United breaking balls away from Terry Carpenter. Yotu Carpenter lets that one go low on a change. Bulling two strikes. Yeah, good take right there. Four pitches in this at bat. He’s seen all four pitches that Lynch throws. A one, two from Lynch. Swinging a Qot foul. Third base. Been a little over a month since Gary Carpenter moved into that leadoff spot. Rips this one pass it diving past Mino to write a base hit. That’s a good at bat for Carrie Carpenter right there. Lynch threw the pitch and sink at him. It was a curveball that was down a little bit. He rifles it past pass Coutino right through that three four hole on the right side. These are the at bats he wanted. He’s earned them against left-handed pitching. He’s still in the lineup and he’s dangerous against him now. Love to see it from Carrie Carpenter. Another step in his evolution. Faber Torres for one with a walk. He’ll take the strike. Tigers lead by a run. Top of the fifth. Y one a wave and a miss on a knuckle curve. It’s nothing and two down and in action to the Kansas City bullpin. Jonathan Bowman up them right-hander. So pitching chaos for both teams today and he spits on that knuckle curve. It did hit the bottom rail. Lunch didn’t get the call. Evens it up. Two balls, two strikes. And now Glaver will call for time. What an addition he has been to this Tiger lineup this season. He’s made everybody around him better. two-2 taken in counts full and just gives you a professional at bat every time he steps up. He he’s just he’s one of those people in life. You ever been around someone who just kind of calm and serene just has a way about him? That’s how Glabour Torres is 24 hours a day. 32 in the dirt ball four and he draws his second walk of the night. I was gonna reference you, but you know, I don’t I don’t need Bobby’s ego getting That’s not me. Anybody who knows me knows there’s some fluctuation over here. Serene has never been used in in reference to me. I can tell you that right now. More more of a spaz than a serene. High energy bouncing off the walls. Yes. Serene. No. Two on, nobody out for Gold Keith. Left on left. First pitch is taken a little bit outside on the slider, but Lynch got the call and it’s 0 and one. Colt singled and scored in the first, popped out to the third baseman to shallow left his next time through. There’s a swing and a miss and he’s in a hole. 0 and two. Nobody out. Tigers lead it by a run here in the fifth inning. Yu swing and a foul. So Bolt lives to see another pitch. Tigers coming in an American League best. 37 and 20. Six games up. Guardians and the Twins. They are seven up on the fourth place. Royals two. Got him. Swinging strength. Three on a slider out of his own. Yeah, he got pitched pretty tough that at bat. Lynch only showed him one heater and it was down and away from him. Steady diet of sliders. That last one he threw him was a really good one with two on now. One out and Riley Green the batter. Riley homered in the first takes outside and that’s ball one. Tigers have lit since the top of the first inning. 10. Green takes away two balls and no strikes. Wanted that one too. Didn’t get it. Shane Livingburgger said no. It was close to that bottom edge away from Riley Green. Hitting over 300 since April 17th. Riley Green 20 puts this one in the air to left. Garcia the third baseman in foul ground infield fly in effect. He’ll make the catch. It’s big out for the Royals as Green is retired here in the fifth inning. Looks like that’s going to be the last batter for Daniel Lynch. M Caro is making his way to the mound. And with that, we’ll step aside for this Royals call to the bullpen.

Just kept bearing down in on Andy Aanz. Blew up his bat. You’re right, partner. India ran a long way to get to that ball. Made a nice play when he got there.

Got a Tiger pitching change brought to you by the Southeast Michigan Ford dealers. Brendan Hannfi is on in relief. Inning and two/3s. Really good. Brandt Herder tonight. Struck out a pair. He turns it to Hannify. Hannify will have the top of the Royals lineup. Jonathan India takes a strike. Yeah, Brandon Lass worked on the 28th through an inning against the Giants. Gave up a hit, punched out a batter. Power four seamer slider. That’s what he does. Oh, one taken in. Count evens up. Fall in a strike. Said for seamer. Definitely not a force. Power two seamer. That super sinker puts the ball on the ground quite a lot. That sinker slider for Hannify. 25th appearance of the year for Hannify. The 1-1 rope to left and that’s a base hit for India. Left the slider up. India took it to the full side. It’s his second hit of the night and the Royals will bring the tying run to the plate. And Bobby W Jr. That ball was roasted 106 off the bat. Just a slider that didn’t do a whole lot. Got in the middle of the plate. Going to get a double play here. You better hurry cuz Bobby Whit Jr. can absolutely fly out of that right-handed batter’s box. One for three with a homer tonight for Whit Jr. First pitch from Hannify swinging it to chop to third. Ibanz has it. Gets the lead runner at second. Torres flips the first. Got him. Double play. What a turn. Ibanz to Torres to Torlson. Erase the base runner. And boy, partner, you’re right. He gets out of that box. so fast and they just did get him. And I think the Royals are going to challenge this call. Yeah, it has to be clean. Clean both sides. The catch, the feed. Oh, he might be saved. And the turn at first. It’s bang bang down at first. Kansas City is going to challenge the call. I told you you had to hurry. Replay brought to you by 1800 Call Sam. When you need the right call made, it’s 1800 Paul Sam. It’s close, but I think he’s safe. I think you’re right. We’re getting a look at it on our FanDuel sports monitor here. And it is awfully close down there at first base. All on the field was out and it’s just a matter of do they have enough evidence with what we’ve seen. It’s close. I mean there was no quicker way of turning it. She did everything right. It was a chopper. Andy is playing in review. The call second is confirmed. That runner is out first. continue retain the challenge. So they challenged both the out at second and the out at first. We told you you have to hurry. Bobby Jr. got down first base at 417 down the line out of the right-handed batted box. That’s really really good for a left-handed hitter. For him to get out of the box the way he does is just amazing from that right side. He beat the throw. So man on first. Still the tying run at the plate. Here is Vinnie Pasquantino one for two today with a walk. Double play still in order up the middle. Whit does have 20 stolen bases this season. See if he gets frisky. Pitch misses in from Hannify for ball one. Lefties have been tough on Hannah this season. 10. Back pick from Dingler to first and not in time to get with. It’s a two and0 count on Pasino. Yeah, I like it. I like it from Dylan Dingler being aggressive. We saw him back pick down to second base early in the game. That was a a fast ball that Brennan Hannity yanked glove side and in to Pascantino. Dingler went with it and just drew behind with at first base. Two and0 to count on Pascino. Don’t want to miss make a mistake here if you’re Brendan Hanny and Hannify will step off. That’s the first disengagement. Tigers lead it by two. It’s 5-3 here in the sixth inning. Hannah from the belt. Looks at Whit deals low and in. Didn’t miss by much, but it’s 3 and 0. That was a force into Pasquantino as well. Reno the count on Pasquantino. Whit off first the pitch down and in. That’s four pitches long. Tying run now on base. Salvador Perez on pitch count brought to you by Rocket Mortgage. Own the dream. Hannify the third pitcher of the day. Casey Mai through 79. Herder 26. And now eight in the books for Hannify. Now, if he can get Salvador Perez to roll one over, much easier double play opportunity here with Pasantino at first versus Whit. And the first pitch is a false strike on a sinker. Rez one for two. Doubled and scored in the third. He was intentionally walked in the fourth. Heny looks at second. 01 pitch. Swing and a foul. Third base side. He works ahead of Perez. Nothing in two. Definitely you can get one on the ground here. Like you said, great double play candidate. Easier said than done. Absolutely. This guy at the plate. Nothing to the count on Perez. Pitch slider that misses away and it’s a ball in two strikes. That’s how kind of how you have to do it with Salvi. It’s got to be usually it’s some spin away as opposed to firm fast ball away. He’s able to get that ball even when it’s down. He’s able to elevate that baseball. The one two from Hannah feeds and a foul. Back to the screen third base side. We’ll do it again at one and two. Tyler Holton has begun to throw at that Tiger bullpen. Tight ball game as we expected it to be. These two central division rivals opening up a weekend series. All in two strikes on Salvador Perez.

Kyle Isel turned and ran and outran the baseball, ends up being able to kind of square up to it at the end. But boy, he ran a long way to get that baseball. It’s hard enough as a center fielder to field a ball that’s hit straight at you. But when it’s hit straight at you and it’s over your head and to still be able to have the wherewithal to sprint towards the wall, turn around and make the catch, it’s an outstanding play by Isbel.

And I would imagine he read that spin and thought it was going to do more than it did. And it did just didn’t eclipse that bottom rail. Two outs for Riley Green. He’s got a home run in this game and he takes change up away for a ball. Clark came up with the Arizona Diamondbacks organization that drafted him in the third round.

The two- two from Hannipe in the air. See if this one stays in the field of play. Torqulson giving chase onto the track and near the camera. Well, it planks off his glove into the seats. and we’ll do it again at two and two. Yeah, that’s certainly a play that Torque’s going to want back. And May, he kept kind of drifting over towards that rail just beyond the first base dugout here in Coffman Stadium to do it over again. Probably would have got to the rail and found his way back. Two-2 Ian Tight runs a full. And is that the best approach when you see a ball like that going where it’s going to be a tweener? Is it best to get to the spot first?

You don’t typically want your change ups up and in the right-handed hitters being a right-handed pitcher, but that’s where it was. And double strike three. Here’s Carrie Carpenter. One for Carpenter checked the ball low and in. Started him with a change up. That’s ball one. A couple of change ups get away from Andrew Hoffman, including the one he served up to Spencer Torpson on the T. No strikes. Outs runner on base. 74 Tigers. Up and away off the glove of Perez and into second base goes Dylan Dingler. Alert base running from Dingler. Once he saw that ball clank off of Perez glove called to the ground, he took off. Sure did. Popped out of Salvi’s glove right behind the umpire. Gang saw it and it got an extra 90. So now another insurance run in the scoring position for the Tigers. Top of the lineup at the plate. Here’s the 200. Carpenter waving a miss on a change up. It’s two and one. They give a wild pitch or pass. I’m going to go with wild pitch. 23 pitch inning for Andrew Hoffman. when Dingler at second base. Two outs in the top of the eighth. Tigers have out hit the Royals 11 to 10th. 2-1 ripped up the right field line. Foul. Oh, by inches. Foul up that right field line. Carpenter is trying to will that one fair, but get a good look at it on our monitors. And it was just fouled. Just foul. Are the Tigers going to challenge this? I don’t think they’re convinced. I think they’re going to have a look at it. Like they are you can’t take the challenges with you. So call on the field is foul ball. Detroit is challenging. The Tigers will challenge.

Bullpen door swings open again for AJ Hinge. Tommy Kanley is on with his Tiger pitching change by the Southeast Michigan Ford dealers. Kanley was lights out on Wednesday against San Francisco. He will face 91 and two here in the Royals eighth. Tiger 7 Royals for opening game of the series. First pitch is taken for a strike by Kyle Isbel. He’s two for three today with a pair of singles. Double balls in a strike. Kanley pulls the ball away from his body below the belt. Kicks and fires on the 01. Taken a little bit below the zone on a fast ball that time. Yeah, good fast ball from Canley. 95 m miles an hour. He has a good fast ball. Good for Seamer. It’ll sit 93 94. That one was 95, but we know the change up is what he’s ultimately going to go to. One wave and a miss on a change up fading away. It’s one and two. Absolutely filthy after that fast ball. That one he turned over a little bit. Had that sync fade action away from the left-handed hitting Kyle Isel. He can cut it too. Make it go down and in to lefties away from right-handed. Fall in two strikes on Isbel. Hanley delivers way outside. Two inning save on Wednesday afternoon at Kame Park. His seventh save of the year. 0 and1 one or 0 and 0 with 152 RA with no decisions and a 152 RA 22 down and in runs at full Tigers a little bit of breathing room with the two runs they added in the top of this inning to go ahead seven to four. Tigers team that came in plus 84 in the run differential column. 3-2 roped to first and picked out of the air by Spencer Torqulson. Isbel retired. One down in the eighth. Yeah, nice job there by Torque. That ball was hit hard off the bat of Isbel. He got a change up he could handle. Line drive, but it ends up the glove of Torque down there at first base. Back to the top. Jonathan India started the day 0 for two. He has singled in his last two trips. Mainly heals a fast ball for a strike and it’s 0 and one. Bobby, everyone is expecting change up change up change up. So when he mixes in the fast ball makes 95 look like a 100. The 01 up and in one and one the count. It really does. And it’s just that tells first of all it tells you how how good his change up is. I mean he at one point in the playoff session here he threw 61 consecutive change up and he gets 85% of the change ups now is what he throws. One-1 popped foul first base side that’ll get into the seats. It’s a ball in two strikes. When you’re when you’re two pitch pitcher essentially there’s a slider he mixes in there 1% of the time. So he’s a two pitch pitcher but then when your ratio is like that that’s even more impressive. that those those changes we talked about talked about it earlier, but he can make it go both directions. So, it’s essentially two pitches, but still it’s incredible. A one, two, got him. Swinging strike three on a fast ball. Hley picks up his first strike out. Two gone eighth inning for Bobby Whit Jr. That’s exactly what you talked about right there. 95 down bottom rail. And that has to feel like you said like a 100 if not more than that. Effective velocity that you’ve just seen those change ups float in there like butterflies. Two outs. Bobby Whit Jr. one for four with a homer. Hanley offers first pitch fouls it off his foot and it’s 0 and one. Tigers winners of four in a row heading into this ball game tonight. They are four defensive outs away. securing their fifth consecutive win. No balls and a strike. Hanley low the belt deals on the 01. Swinging a tap foul on a change up. It’s nothing and two. Tigers will have Torres, Keith, and Green. Two, three, and four in the top of the ninth inning. Right now, the lead is three. Kaneley delivers the O2. Swinging a chop to short. Charging McKinstry flips on to first and the side is retired. Hanley made it look easy. Gets the side in order. One, two, three. We are on to the top of the ninth at Kaufman Stadium. Tiger 7 Royals four here on the Detroit Tigers. Great moments in baseball have been broadcast on the radio since 1921. Smith Clarks wanted to right down the line. It may go crazy folks. Go crazy.

Seven to four Tigers lead the Royals. Top of the ninth inning. Send Andrew Hoffen back out for a second inning of work. He surrendered two runs in the eighth. First pitch to Glabber Torres is up and in for a ball. The ninth inning is brought to you by Coma. Only one bank has been committed to Michigan since 1849. That’s Coma. Hoffman making his major league debut this evening. First battery face was Spencer Torlson who put one into the fountain. Cold strike on Glaver Torres. Evens the count up at one and one. Glaver’s 0 for two today. Has twice walked. Well best cranking it up down in the Tiger bullpen. I’m going to strike on Glaver. Torres often fire. Breaking ball. This is away. Two balls in a strike. Tommy Keaneley clean eighth inning. Appears that he will flip it to best in the ninth. 2-1 taken low. Three and one on Glamber Torres. Hoffman from the stretch. 3-1. Torres rips this one over to third on one bounce. Mikel Garcia goes down to a knee to get it onto first. One hop throw. Pasquantino couldn’t pick it. That’s going to be an E5. That’s rare on both sides. Mel Garcia’s played a good third base this year and Pascantino’s usually really, really good at those picks at first. Can’t come up with it. And Glabber’s on base. He had time to throw. See it on our handle monitor here. Pascino not helped. Happy with himself. First pitch wave and a miss by Cole Keef. I think we’re just floored that Pascino didn’t dig one out of the dirt. Oh, very rarely does he not miss. Does he miss though? No balls in a strike on Keith. That’s high and outside one for four. Singleton scored in the first inning on the Riley Green home run. Riley in the on deck circle. Royals bullpen quiet here in the top of the ninth. Tigers up by three runs, seven to four. Field plays for two. Holt swings and misses at a change up below the zone. It’s one and two. Like Hoffman’s change up when he can locate it. Well, he can locate it and get it down. It has really good action on it. All in two strikes on Colt Keefe. Think he doubles up on the pitch. He delivers. Got him. Swinging strike three. Did just that. Doubled up on the change. Pause for station identification on the Detroit Tigers radio network. Top of the ninth. 74 Tigers lead at man on first. Claver Torres reached on an error. Here’s Riley Green. First pitch to Riley is taken for a strike away. Thunderous two-run home run from Green back in the first inning. Got the party started. No balls and one strike to count. Hoffman fires. Green takes it in the dirt. Nice block by Salvador Perez. Not even in the ninth inning. It appears that it’ll be Will Best. He’ll face Aspentino, Salvador Perez, and Mel Garcia. All in a strike account on Riley Green. Often looks at first, steals on the one-1. A change up center cut a cold strike. It’s one and two. Must be channeling his inner Tommy Kanley because it seems like he’s throwing that pitch every single pitch now. Ball and two strikes on Riley Green. Victoria short lead to first. A one zoo up and outside. Two balls, two strikes. 37 pitches for Hoffman. 17. Enjoying the game? Subscribe and hit the bell bell so you never miss an MLB broadcast. Two count. We go live every day.

Andrew Hoffman delivered, swing, miss on a change up. Back-to-back strikeouts of the left-handed hitting Colt Keith and Riley Green. Hoffman has struck out four here in his major league debut tonight. He’s right at the ship a little bit. Again, it’s a big fast ball at 96, 97 mph. That change up’s got really good action on it. Good arm action. You swing at that and the ball just doesn’t ride if it’s late. He started it at the bottom rail and then it just dove away. Here’s Spencer Torqulson. He takes a strike. Torque hammered won 436 feet off of Hoffman in the eighth. Berglesson at two RBI nights including his 14th homer of the year. Flavor is the man at first reach on an error. Hoffman on the 01 taken in change up missing that time evens the count up and a ball and a strike. They are riding this 25 year old right-hander upus right now in that Royals bullpen on the mound. One and one on Torlson. The pitch one’s high on a four seam. Two balls in a strike. Speaking of guys getting called up from the miners, we didn’t even touch on Dylan Smith yet tonight. Such a busy day here. It has been an interesting day. 2-1. Corpson puts it in the air. Foul. Tigers bringing up right-handed reliever. Owen Smith from Triple A Toledo. Brief stint with the Hens. Began the season in Da Erie. Two and two. The count on Torlson. the pitch. This one hit off the end of the bat into right center. Arcana coming in on it and he’ll have edge retire the side leadoff error and then Hoffman gets the side in order.

And Will Bess is on with his Tiger pitching chain by the Southeast Michigan Ford dealers. He’ll face Vinnie Pasquantino Salvador Perez, Mikel Garcia here in the ninth inning. Best the sixth different pitcher used by AJ Hinch tonight. Makes his 25th appearance of the season. He’s 4-0, 173 RA. He is seven of nine in save chances. Last pitch on the 27th against the Giants. Earned a save that day. First pitch to pass Martino’s a called strike. Dotted it at the bottom of the zone. It’s 0 and one. Yeah, that’s that for fast ball from Will Vest. Throws that about 60% of the time. Slider change up and a sinker to go with it. The one taken low. Ball in a strike count. A pass from Tino. He has singled, walked twice and scored a run today. Tigers looking for their fifth straight victory. A 1-1 shot down the left field line and foul. One and two. The count. Ball travels pretty well here at Coffman Stadium. Most of the time you get a cross breeze, never really blowing in or straight out. The one two fouled away. Look out right field at those flags. They’re still at those on their mezzanine level. Yeah, and they are blowing straight down. Doing nothing tonight. One and two the count on Pasquantino stands at the plate. Pitch line the other way and fouled. Good approach here from Pasquantino. Best keeps going away and he’s trying to take it the other way. Yeah, he’s going to give you a quality at bat. I you know and that’s what that’s why he’s so valuable at this lineup. Brent Herder got struck him out earlier in the game, but he handles left-handed guys, right-handers. The one two is a soft roller. It’ll be Clayber Torres ranging gloves off balance through first in time to get past Quentino for out number one. Talked about how serene and how easy Glabber Torres is. Slow developing play there. He was playing well into that 34 hole on the right side of the diamond. had to range far to his right to get the backhand. Didn’t create get a good exchange on it. Went back in the glove, but never panicked. Just executing the throw to Spencer Torlson at first base. Salvador Perez swings and misses a high fast ball and it’s 0 and one. Zack McKinstry, he was shaded up the middle, but he was right there if that ball had gotten by Glabber Torres. Zack was right there to back him up. the 01 swinging a foul back to the screen and it’s nothing in two on Salvador Perez. Tigers lead it by three here in the ninth inning. Looking to put away the Royals to earn their fifth consecutive win. Here’s the O2. Got him. A swinging strike three broke out the slider and gets Perez to chase. Two down. Just another quality pitch from Will Vest. Doesn’t throw a ton of sliders. So, actually, he throws about 20% of them. That’s his main off speed weapon. Two out in the ninth. And Kel Garcia, the hitter, got a pair of knocks today and a walk. First pitch from Vest swinging a foul. Third base side. 0 and one. Tigers have had to piece it together tonight. Casey Mai just three and a third innings. Grant her hitting in two/3 and then innings from Brandon Hanny Bozky Tommy Canley and now Will Vest the 01 swinging the foul straight back to the net and nothing and two on Garcia. You know the interesting thing is I used to think that Will vest worked very fast but after what we’ve seen the last couple days with with Ruben Lugo this seems like much this seems very normal. Bill Balls, two strikes, the pitch just off the outside edge at 98. One and two the count. Garcia’s having himself one heck of a year. Quality at bat after quality at bat. One ball, two strike count. Best peers in, gets the sign and sets a one two in the dirt. evens it up on a night where everybody else in the Central has lost. Tigers a chance to open up more of a lead with one more out. Two-2 swing of the line drive center field and it falls in for a base hit. So Perez cuts it off. That’s a three hit day for Garcia. And Bobby, I really like the fact that so many times you see young players trying to make an ill-advised dive. And on that play, Wel Perez in center field just let that ball drop. Yeah. Scooped, fired it in. It is what it is. I mean, it was Winter was playing slightly full side with Garcia. End up being not that close to it. No reason. Just play it safe. Get it into the infielder. They’ll play off the runner and give him second base. And first pitch Drew Waters is fouled away. Waters one for four day has driven in two of the four Kansas City runs. Two out base runner here in the top of or the bottom of the ninth for the Royals. Go balls in a strike on Waters. Best from the letters. Runner takes off. Pitch is fouled away and it’s nothing and two. Tigers built a four to one lead. Royals have twice closed it to one-run ball games. Tigers two big insurance runs in the eighth, carrying this three-run lead into the bottom of the ninth. No balls and two strikes on Drew Water. Man on first is Mike Garcia. Best deliver on hammered foul into the upper deck on the third base side. We’ll do it again at nothing and two. Yeah, Waters chased a fast ball up last time. Would be surprised if they stayed with a steady diet above the letters here. 02. Two outs in the ninth. Runner on. 0 and two. The count on Drew Waters. The pitch and away again. And after going on every pitch, El Garcia gets the second on defensive indifference. All in two strikes. Best delivers in the dirt. Two and two. That was the change up down. Not really a competitive pitch. Bounced it into Dylan Dingler. But that’s what you’re trying to do. You’re trying to change the eye level. Obviously disrupt timing. Faced the Royals twice back in April. a pair of scoreless innings. Two-2 line drive up the middle. Oh, it’s pass to Ding McKinstry into center field. This is going to bring home Garcia. And now the tying run will come to the plate in the ninth inning. RBI single for Drew Waters on a three RBI night. And now Best will face Markana. Backto back two out hits. fast ball. He left it up and it was drilled back through the middle by Waters. That’s a good piece of hitting. That’ll vest and end up winning. Best delivers. First pitch fast ball up and in on Kenna for ball one. 75 Tigers bottom of the ninth with two outs. Waters got the second on defensive indifference. The 10 upstairs 2 and 0. You’ve got a guy at the plate does not chase very often. Montana’s strike zone recognition is superb. Two and0 the count. Best deal swinging a ground ball up the middle. Blaver Torres goes to a knee, scoops, flips on to first and that’s the ball game. Will Vest closes it out and the Tigers take the series opener over the Kansas City Royals by a final score of seven to five. The Tigers have won their fifth straight ball game. We will step aside and have the postgame show next right here on the Detroit Tigers radio network done by Meyer.
