And Torres flies out to finally end this 30 minute half inning.

[spuds1961]

So close.

[fulltritty]

I don't expect anyone to be on the field when they come back from commercial break.

Call it I have a hockey game to watch. Games like this give me an uneasy feeling.

If Torres got a hit to make it a 5 run lead it probably would have happened.

[fulltritty]

I can't believe they aren't calling this slop. The infield is puddles. Someone is going to get hurt and a manager is going to go off on an umpire.

[fulltritty]

Santana now pitching for the Yankees.

[spuds1961]

Swing the bat as most pitches will be strikes.

23 Ks by both teams already in this one after 7 1/3rd innings.

[fulltritty]

And Santana gives up a one out single.

[fulltritty]

And he slipped getting out of the box, but lets keep playing.

5 more outs hopefully they can get them and end this game already.

If the Tigers don't score in this inning, I'd have all 3 Yankees go up there in the bottom of the half and just look at all pitches to K and get to the 9th. Or swing at the 1st pitch.

[spuds1961]

And that was a ball thank goodness that stayed in the park. Sunny day it’s gone.

Take every pitch make the umpire work.

[fulltritty]

And Santana strands a runner to go to the bottom of the 8th.

Unless it's over his head or in the outer other batter box, it's probably going to be a strike.

[spuds1961]

Nice K Santana.

24 total Ks on the day. I wonder how many were umpire aided.

Definitely they should have told the Tigers if they didn’t score in the 8th it would be called.

[fulltritty]

Game might be over.

[fulltritty]

And that's it. The tarp is going on the field.

[spuds1961]

How stupid.

[fulltritty]

They should have called the game earlier than this with the way that infield was the last 2 innings or so.

[spuds1961]

Just call it at this point.
