ABC off to a terrible start entertainment wise for Tigers-Astros - aggravating Yankees voice Michael Kay has taken a gig as the play-by-play man.

That’s odd

I'll take the trade of him beating Kevin Brown for this kind of national gig if Kevin's team can win on the field.

I think I heard on the MASN preview Ben McDonald is with ESPN in some capacity for our series, I hope in the booth.

Can't tell you how happy I am that he's not calling the O's series.

Tigers doing some damage against Valdez. Tigers beating the Astros in this series would be a good thing.

Jake Rogers, part of the Justin Verlander trade, gives Tarik Skubal an early lead.

Famous last words but for now glad these Tiger at bats are in Houston and not Baltimore.

[JR Oriole]

No matter what happens with KC, I am so glad we avoided the Tigers.  Three of their "bad" hitters in a row just came through with RBI singles.  They are a totally fearless team, incredibly clutch, and so hard to game plan against.

So glad we’re not facing Detroit to start off. What I want for the Os, tho, is this same pass-the-baton, don’t-try-to-do-too-much type of approach. It’s what we did a lot in the first half, and it’s what got us those wins against NYY and the Twins over the past week.

Uh oh. Skubal hit?

Not his pitching hand.

12th batter faced, Tarik Skubal feeling invincible tried to truck Yordan Alvarez still pounding the strike zone up 0-2, and Yordan got a sharp single.
