Hilarious to give Pages the post game interview like he did something.

I guess good that Philly is out since one less team to have home field advantage against us in a potential World Series.

That's what happens when you put the ball in play. Execution is never guaranteed especially in high leverage situations. Boneheaded error. **** the Dodgers

Dude even missed home plate. So an accurate throw could have still led to an out.

But the obvious throw was to 1st.

He panicked

Pitcher completely choked. He had time to throw it to first even with the bobble.

No even if he hit realmuto in the chest it looks like the runner was well ahead of the throw.

I think he’d have been out at home too (but closer) but the play is still easily to first there

The guy would have been out by a mile

I agree the baserunning beat the throw. But they showed that the baserunner missed hime plate initially and went back to step on home plate after missing it.

So in "theory", a good throw still could have got him an out.

But he should have gunned it to 1st

Can this Tigers offense make up a 1-run deficit? Probably not.

1 run should be enough for Seattle against this garbage offense.

We're in danger.

Skubal at 36 pitches is a worry he'll need some shorter innings tho I assume he has enough in the tank to go 110+

Had no idea Skubal’s hometown is Kingman, Arizona.

That’s where Sacha Baron Cohen did his mosque prank. :lol:
