Back to EpisodesA Victim of His Own Ignorance (Tigers Series Recap, 6/23-6/25)
Description
The Twins, much to David's disappointment, only take 2 of 3 from the Tigers in Detroit. David had predicted a sweep but still seems in high spirits even after a disappointing series from the Twins offense. Dan comes away with back-to-back victories in Puckett's Picks and can't stop himself from heaping praise upon Royce Lewis. As happy as he is with Royce Lewis, Dan continues to be frustrated with Rocco's unwillingness to look at the statistics before making pinch hitting decisions, and David thinks that Rocco's ejection in game 1 was a more fitting type ejection for someone of Rocco's demeanor. Dan wants to know what we can realistically expect out of Maeda this year, and David is curious if you had to choose to keep either Kepler or Gallo at this point, who would you send away. The boys grade the series and then discuss both the MLB London series and the Angels making a mockery of the Rockies. Thanks so much for listening, and as always, go Twins!
