#Tigers are 3-0 since I called them out in my column on Monday.

You're welcome.

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

@BobPagesports @freepsports @detnews_sports @theopsports Like I can afford to hire an agent!

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

BTW I represent myself, @@freepsports, @detnews_sports and @theopsports! Call me.

[Bob Page @BobPagesports]

Why must I repeat this?! YOU are the best sports columnist in Detroit but, sadly, have a limited audience. YOU need to get an agent or a rep & have him tell @freepsports & @detnews_sports about you!
And since the tragic death of Pat Caputo, @OaklandPress would be better for you.

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

Gold. #Tigers

[Chris Iott @Chris_Iott]

MLB should let Dillon Dingler call balls and strikes and give the home plate umpire two challenges per game.

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

@JeffSparbeck @IffyTheDopester @BobPagesports @cardio64 @TBonesPrimeCuts @NickMilanovich @ChrisCasquejo @ChrisDPOMAY @KalineCountry @KenKalDRW Thanks Jeff! Appreciate the support.

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

My latest. The #Tigers collapse isn't all that surprising. Because they were never as good as you thought. @IffyTheDopester @BobPagesports @cardio64 @TBonesPrimeCuts @NickMilanovich @ChrisCasquejo @ChrisDPOMAY @KalineCountry @KenKalDRW @JeffSparbeck

Sadly we only remember umpires' names after wrong calls.

How many people associate the great Doug Harvey (a NATIONAL LEAGUE umpire btw) with making the RIGHT call when Brock was tagged out in Game 5 of the 1968 WS? #Tigers #StlCardinals

[Benito @CourtsideAura]

@GregEno He does flinch and I think it’s just more evidence that some umpires would rather be the center of attention and create a moment that people argue about than make the right call.

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

@WMRR_too 20/20 hindsight. If Jim makes the right call, no one is even THINKING that.

First basemen do that all the time.

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

I'll die on this hill.

Look at Joyce closely. His physical instinct was to call the runner out. He flinches. Then he makes the safe call. I THINK Jim's brain's wiring fucked him up. He WANTED to call the runner out but his brain "told" his arms to signal safe. #Tigers

[Brad Galli @BradGalli]

On this day in Detroit Tigers history:

Armando Galarraga had his perfect game cut short on what should have been the final out on June 2, 2010.

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

@CourtsideAura You're insane if JJ intentionally wanted to have his illustrious career tainted by this call. Did Don Denkinger want to be known as the guy who cost the Cardinals the WS in 1985?

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

@BobPagesports @BillyTMtn @JeffSparbeck @IffyTheDopester @cardio64 @TBonesPrimeCuts @NickMilanovich @ChrisCasquejo @ChrisDPOMAY @KalineCountry @KenKalDRW Well the A's, as you know, were a de facto minor league affiliate for the Bronx Bombers.

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

@1015elvis @BradGalli But had Miggy let the 2B handle, would Donald have clearly beaten the throw? Lemme look again. Still, your take is EXTREMELY 20/20 hindsight. First basemen make that move routinely.

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

Only the #Tigers can make the fans feel like they lost, even when they won.

[Jim Costa @JimCosta_]

Even the wins are ugly

On a day where they hit 5 HR they still tried to give it away late

Credit Will Vest. Came in with the bases loaded and the defense melting down around him. Still bared down after his double play ball was botched

End with a 40 pitch 5 out save
#DNMW

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

@1015elvis @BradGalli I don't understand this take. The runner was still out.

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

@TimRiggins_33 @BradGalli Disagree. Changing it would in NO WAY make this any "less famous." That train has left the station.

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

Here's the flinch.

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

@TBonesPrimeCuts @BillyTMtn @ChrisDPOMAY @JeffSparbeck @IffyTheDopester @BobPagesports @cardio64 @NickMilanovich @ChrisCasquejo @KalineCountry @KenKalDRW Wait.

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

@BillyTMtn @JeffSparbeck @IffyTheDopester @BobPagesports @cardio64 @TBonesPrimeCuts @NickMilanovich @ChrisCasquejo @ChrisDPOMAY @KalineCountry @KenKalDRW Shitty teams gotta get their 60+ wins somewhere. That's why I love baseball. A team with a .367 pct can beat a team with the flip record on any given day. You think the KC Athletics never beat the Yankees?

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

@IffyTheDopester 100+ losses:
1996
2002
2003
2019
2026?

[Greg Eno @GregEno]

@KeithGave Wasn't he also nicknamed "The Beast"?
