love watching games at Comerica. those spacious ballparks can really get people moving around bases and set up some exciting plays. lots of doubles and triples and plays on the bases coming from the outfield are way more fun to watch than a buncho f homers

How close was this play at the plate? Did Teahan show some effort at home? Sorry tracking this online and was just wondering now that the top of the inning is over.
It wasn't close. Inge made a great throw from center. And with only one out, there wasn't any reason to send buck home.

Inge sacrificed to first, Thomas to third.

Prediction:
KC 5

Meche goes 7 solid. Gordon goes yard. Soria with the save.

Excellent first game.
The starting pitching was shaky, but not bad. Relief pitching was excellent minus 1 bad pitch, and the hitting was ABSOLUTELY clutch today. Excellent opening day, and a great start to the Trey Hillman era.:)

Listened off and on while making sales calls,missed all of KC's scoring except for the 5th run and got home in time to catch the bottom of the 11th on the tube.
Wow,I'm actually excited about baseball.

I'm sincerely impressed. They could have very easily rolled over today, going against Verlander and that lineup on their home opener. Won't get too excited over one game, but I like what I see so far.

That's really terrible. How do you lose to the Royals on opening day? Tigers left tons of men on base and their fantastic addition of Renteria can't even hit a freaking fly ball. Bullpen of course couldn't keep it tied for too long, that's just expecting way too much.
Wow. I seriously don't know what to say. Royals suck and the Tigers got beat by them.
Gil Meche is good. But clearly our offense was not up to snuff today, especially against a AAA bullpen.
An auspicious start to the season----losing to the Royals for God's sake.

Always nice to see an opening day win; especially against Verlander and the Tigers' super-lineup. Good stuff.

Their lineup is incredible, but I'm not convinced they have the "mental make-up" of a Champion.

Is Meche really a #1 guy???
Quiet you. He's by far the best #1 guy the Royals had for quite some time. Doesn't help when you have to face this murderous line-up and a umpire who can't tell a difference between a ball and a strike.

a AAA bullpen?
we had a solid bullpen last year. and today we got 5 innings of 2 hit ball out of our bullpen.
our closer's career line is 69IP, 19 BB, 75 K, 2.48.
in fact with zumaya injured, i think our bullpen is better than theirs.

I actually think Tomko has really good stuff. He was throwing 96 with an nasty 84 mph slider. He would probably be a solid reliever.
