Don't miss this classic pitcher's duel for the ages. Don't go home after work but stop at a friendly tavern with the TV's on.

This is playoff big boy pitching. Lackey and Verlander have been dominate.

The Cardinals think Napoli's double high five after the home run was unprofessional.

I could definitely get used to seeing Miguel Cabrera striking out in big spots.

He hasn't been the same player since he got hurt. What should be unnerving for Detroit is how useless Prince Fielder has looked since Cabrera has been hurt.

Ozzie and the 2005 ALCS starters are not relevant to the argument as none of the starters were in the same situation. Buehrle threw 99 pitches- he would have come out for the 10th if it had stayed tied. Garland 118, Garcia 116, and Contreras 114. Garland threw the most pitches, and he was at 91 after seven, not 108. Contreras was at 95 after 7 innings in a 3-3 game, and I remember thinking he would not finish. But the Sox scored in the 8th and he had an 8 pitch inning to allow him to have the chance to pitch the 9th.
And Verlander threw 120 last night.

Leyland said the same thing in the post-game comments. Maybe Scherzer didn't pitch enough during the regular season.

He wasn't playing up to his contract even before Miggy got hurt; his numbers are down across the board. He's going through a divorce and there has been speculation that that is the cause of his less than stellar season.

My brother used to live on the same floor as Prince many years ago. He seemed close to his family. Such instances always messes with your head.

Back on track to his playoff norm after his unusual decent start against TB.

At least Tigers fans now have a reason to be happy about trading away Avisail Garcia.
