Around SBN: Nevin Shapiro Vows To Bring Down Miami

Tigers-White Sox Game Thread


Thought I would throw this up in case people want to discuss

Star-divide

Quentin went deep to lead off the 2nd inning; Sox up 1-0.  Kotsay just walked as Figaro seems unnerved and has temporarily lost his control.  Ah, I need more words.  Already the Tigers are getting some guys up in the pen, as Rios just singled, men on 1st and 2nd with nobody out in the top of the 2nd inning with the Sox already in the lead.  Pile it on boys.  Is that long enough?

We go into Chicago and sweep, eliminating them, and he doesn’t say anything.

Tigers go into Chicago (after White Sox are eliminated) and White Sox lose a game and Ozzie goes off.

Figaro isn't going to last long

and he won’t last any longer. Quick hook. Long game for the bullpen of the Tigers tonight.

2-0

Could have been 2 without the bobble by Polanco.

And Leyland already going to the lefty specialist for 1 batter in the 2nd inning.

I will say...

the atmosphere at the Dome today was unreal. Everyone around us was saying they wanted to stay and watch the Tigers/Sox game there.

On December 8, 2005, A.J. Pierzynski appeared on TNA iMPACT!, a professional wrestling television program aired by the professional wrestling promotion Total Nonstop Action Wrestling. Accompanied by White Sox strength trainer Dale Torborg, Pierzynski presented TNA wrestlers A.J. Styles, Chris Sabin and Sonjay Dutt with memorabilia from the 2005 World Series. At the ceremony, an incident was staged to include Pierzynski in a controversy with the wrestlers. Pierzynski then made his professional wrestling managerial debut at TNA Turning Point 2005 on December 11, 2005, accompanying Torborg, Sabin and Dutt to ringside for their match against the Diamonds in the Rough.

On October 10, 2006, Pierzynski appeared on ESPN2’s Cold Pizza, wearing the X-Division Championship belt, and challenged WWE Champion John Cena, who was also a guest that morning, to a Title vs. Title steel cage match whenever Cena wanted to have it. Cena responded asking if Pierzynski got his championship belt out of a gumball machine outside.

On the September 7, 2009 of WWE Monday Night Raw in which Bob Barker hosted, Pierzynski appeared as a contestant in “The Price is Raw” (a parody of The Price is Right, originally hosted by Barker), losing to Santino Marella.
