Not at my regular computer so I can't pull up the broom guy.

Verlander has to get hit sometime again so why not now??

Murph's home run trot took all of five or six seconds. Crazy-fast.

It's real frustrating to not take advantage on an afternoon when Verlander wasn't nearly as good as he sometimes is. Pelfrey really needs a kick in the ass for the walks; them coming back to burn us was a predictable as the sun rising in the East tomorrow morning.

I think Terry needs to be remindex about AL rules and how you don't have to pinch hit for your pitcher. I was surprised to not just have Carrasco finish the game.
