Detroit, Lift Up Your Weary Head!: 9/13 Game Thread, Jays at Tigers
Toronto Blue Jays at Detroit Tigers, Sep 13, 2009 1:05 PM EDT
Hi everyone. I missed yesterday's game as I went to RFK Stadium to catch the DC United match, which didn't exactly end well, although it was as always a fantastic atmosphere. Anyway, it sounds like I missed an exciting Jays game.
Today's game should be an interesting one too. Ricky Romero and Rick Porcello go at it in a battle of rookie 1st-round draft picks. I'm sure jessef would want me to remind everyone that it's Morristown, NJ's very own (his current domicile) Rick Porcello making the start for the Bless You Boys.
Let's go Jays!

Battle of the Rickys.
TSN HD feed looks funny….
Life as a Toronto Sports Fan?... *sigh*... It is what it is...
That catch is why we shouldn't sign Jason Bay
They're not just hitting home runs. They're doing the little things, like hitting doubles.
They shouldn't put Ruiz in the outfield either

Oh come on Black..
That wasn’t gonna be out of the park..

You know what is going to suck
When it comes to voting for Rookie of the Year even if the stats are similiar Porcello will get the nod over Romero because he plays in States and his team is playoff bound….
Life as a Toronto Sports Fan?... *sigh*... It is what it is...
Romero’s showing has not been bulletproof — he has had some bad outings
Not to say that I do not like him, just that the case for Romero not winning Rookie of the Year is not fully attributable to playing for the Jays
Thats what I mean
I know Ricky has had some poor stats, but so has Rick

it will be interesting I don't know how you pick between the two...
there are others too that are close
Yep,
I understand you can make the argument for both of em (and others), all I mean is that if it is that close then it is going to him.
Regardless I am just happy to have a Rookie that is showing that much promise.

Good point.
Like I said there are others and you can make an argument for a bunch of players and can’t really argue with it.

Thanks god the game isn't on Sportsnet....
I am not sure I could take another game of Fletcher.

Yep, and then he shouldn't be doing commentary if he isn't watching.

Isn't he in rural Illinois or something?
They're not just hitting home runs. They're doing the little things, like hitting doubles.
Lind is gonna
have to heat up if he wants to surpass Hill for HR title this year
Nice job to work out of it with minimum damage.
Life as a Toronto Sports Fan?... *sigh*... It is what it is...
So is Inglet hurt or something that Bautista is in last minute?

Gotta love the Central.
White Sox with a record under 500 and are in second and still kinda maybe in the race.
Life as a Toronto Sports Fan?... *sigh*... It is what it is...
the score at the top of my screen is partly cut off -- too high
is that the case for you also
Heh,
I wouldn’t be able to go back to Standard Def.

I don't have HD, but
I hooked up a projector and amplifier to the satellite, and voila, an 80 inch television to watch ballgames.
Can’t complain.
It is days like today that make you appreciate...
… how much better TV is compared to Radio regardless of annoying commentators.
too bad
Hill might have been able to take second if more heads up
I thought it was Prince that had a problem with Cecil
not the other way around
They're not just hitting home runs. They're doing the little things, like hitting doubles.
hmmmm was awhile ago...
cecil left prince’s mom. and lost a lot of money gambling. when Prince became a play Cecil wanted to have contact again. Prince said no way.
maybe just call him out on principle
for such bonehead running .. LOL
he made a quick calculation that he wasn't a sure DP so got the runner going home
runner saw there was a shot at the DP so he went home
lol, i wonder if the level of thought sophisticatin you attribute to them in that split second might be a bit generous
scoot for sure thought to not catch the ball in the air.
the runner wait till the ball fell. only question I have is if Scoot could have turned the DP that would ahve been the right move still
makes the comeback a lot less likely.
and we are going to see carlson, league, downs and frasor every day
Snider has to learn to get set before throwing
those spin around throws are not helpful
I hate saying this, cause every time I do he goes into another slump
but Vernon looks a lot better at the plate.
