I’m not going to lie to you guys, this game was bad.
For the last day weekday afternoon game of the season, you would have liked to see the Tigers get a win for everyone skipping work. And in a way, a Gardenhire-managed team DID win this game, but that’s solely because Toby Gardenhire was managing alongside Paul Molitor for this series.
“But Ashley, tell us how Spencer Turnbull did in his debut!”
Oh, okay, if you insist. Turnbull went 4.0 innings, gave up six earned runs on six hits, walked a batter, and racked up on two strikeouts on a whopping 81 pitches.
