Did the ESPN crowd leave the stadium yet or are they still at their on-location desks talking about Favre?

LOL...thankfully I didn't see anything regarding that game and all the hype.....

[ashie62]

great..no tv

[Gwreck]

TBS National Broadcast, I think.

[Guest Kong76]

Yes, with Ron Darling doing the color.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Those of you who had "6:32" in the "First Mention of How This Will Save Detroit" pool, step up and collect your TARP prize.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

I've got it on the radio, great call so far, great game.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

THis is great.

I realize this makes me sound like a MFY fan, but I'm rooting for 25 innings.

[bigpurple:2jkkse37]Holy shit, what a DP![/bigpurple:2jkkse37]

Inge saves game (maybe) with his glove and then puts the Tigers up w/a 2-out 2B

Good player Inge ... stupid tattoos.

[Guest Kong76]

Lotta fun, Tigers go ahead in the 10th.
I'd like to see the Hefty Bag Brigade tie it again and take it to 11.

[Frayed Knot]

Obviously more than a bit of luck involved there but Cuddyer's been getting HUGE hits for the Twinkies for weeks now.

[Frayed Knot]

Is Gene Larkin available to pinch-hit?

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Wow. Polanco coulda had that

[Guest Kong76]

[bigpurple:19epd2f3]WOW[/bigpurple:19epd2f3]

Onto the 11th.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

oh, my. TV guy really kicked that call.

[Frayed Knot]

WOW!!
Dude looked like he got a bad jump off of 3B

[metirish]

What a game... riveting

[Gwreck]

Might be better than that epic Colorado-San Diego tilt from 2 years ago in Game 163.

I'm following the game on the internet.
Was it a close play?

Later

[Valadius]

Game 163s have become rather common in the last few years, haven't they?

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

I'd be OK with it if Selig came out now and announced the winner of this game wins everything and it's all over tonight.

[Guest Kong76]

Poor production, stuff going on and innings ending while
they're showing replays and stuff.

Bang bang, but not arguably* close. Line drive to left playing shallow, strong one-hop throw. Runner seemed to be still turning around to get his footing at the instant he should have started, it definitely made a difference.

* close enough for the O to argue.

Bobby Keppel: First round Met draft pick

[Guest Kong76]

Ya wanna get a jersey grazed by a pitch or do you wanna
hit a bases clearing double?

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Gawd, one after another.
