It really couldn’t have been a better weekend for the Tigers. Save for 1 inning, the pitching from the Tigers was spot on.
And that’s not to mention Friday night when John Armstrong looked like he did earlier this season and went 2.2 of 1 hit ball with 3 Ks, giving way to Blake Burkhalter in the 9th for yet another save, his 12th on the year. For those keeping score at home, the pin held Bama to no runs in 11.2 innings. *chef’s kiss*. Then throw in Gonzo on Sunday (even though it didn’t happen) when he was fantastic outside of back to back doubles scored the lone run for the Tide, but with a pitch count at 52 through 5, you have to think that Joseph was well on his way to another 7-8 inning work day before giving way to Burky or Skipper to close things out.
