For night games and special events, like the Sunday afternoon doubleheader against the #Tigers today, they play in the cavernous Municipal Stadium. Today, in the big stadium, the doubeheader drew a mere 8,450.
@BeschlossDC Was working at NSA near BWI Airport, I had just returned from lunch in the cafeteria when a coworker told me what happened. It took me a minute to remember that this was the flight with the teacher on it. As a long-time fan of the Space Program, it shook me to the core.
@JimCosta_ I hope that there's going to be some outrage around that fact that a lot of systems don't have FS2. I'm sitting in a hotel room in Charlotte without the game. My 88 year old father in law can't watch in his facility. This is an epic MLB failure.
@radio_RG Listening while at work in Detroit, Michigan, USA. Michigan was home state of Todd Martin, Mal Washington, Aaron Krickstein. Thanks for your coverage

Jim McElwain has been a HC for 11 years and he’s never once won a conference title. That includes 5 seasons at CMU
Outscored 17-0 in the 4th tonight, he’s now 1-4 vs WMU
Still hasn’t found or developed a QB
Time for a change
@flagstafffilms@tigers@Yankees@yankeestadium It was the Colavito pitching win the the first game of double header in August 25, 1968. Other notable #Tigers in the film were Pat Dobson as the starting pitcher and Dick Tracewski striking out looking against Colavito
@radio_RG Listening while working from home in Michigan (home of Todd Martin, Mal Washington and Aaron Kriekstein). Glad to stay connected to this fine match

Hey @usta,
Huge tennis fan and this @espn@GetSpectrum disagreement completely ruining this year's tournament for a large number of people. This is your time of year and it's being thrown in the trash
Does ANYBODY care?
The #Tigers are currently 3-6 on the road trip, losing two of three in Minnesota, Anaheim, and Oakland. The trip will finish with a four game weekend series in Comiskey Park, which starts after an off day today for travel.
Joe Coleman had allowed 2 runs on 7 hits through the first 7 innings and had struck out 9. But in the 8th, Reggie Jackson homered with one out. Three straight singles and a HR by Ted Kubiak gave Oakland five runs in the inning.
The score remained 2-2 until the 8th inning when Gates Brown walked and scored on a McAuliffe triple. The score was 3-2 favor of the #Tigers going to the bottom of the 8th.
Oakland scored a run in the 1st inning, but the #Tigers countered with 2 in the 2nd, Cash and Brinkman with the RBI singles. The Athletics then came back to tie the game in the 3rd on Sal Bando's second RBI.
Late last night, the Oakland A's scored 5 runs in the 8th inning to turn a 3-2 #Tigers lead into a 7-3 Oakland victory. Detroit had just taken the lead when the A's struck. The win gave Oakland the series and moved the #Tigers 4½ games behind the never losing Orioles.
