The Boston Red Sox know they stole one but that's October Hardball as things like they are going to happen and now they happened Teams are measured on how they respond. The Tigers need to put that one in their back pocket and take care of Game 3. The Carmines on the other hand have a little "MO" rolling with them and they need to strike Verlander and the Tigers in Game 3 quickly to put even more pressure on the Tigers. This will be a pivotal game considering they will play Three in the "D" and the Tiger if they win will not have to return back to Fenway. Bo Sox need at least one "W" to insure they get back to a Home-Cooked Meal.
ALCS Gm #3 October 15, 2013 at 4pm ET
#CARMINES Lackey (10-13) vs #MotorCityKITTIES Verlander (13-12)
The Carmines haven't hit hardly anything until Game 2 in the 7th and 8th innings. Tigers Starters Anibal Sanchez and Max Scherzer were dealing at Fenway. Now they face Justin Verlander who was virtually impossible to hit in two dominant games in the ALDS versus the Swingin' A's. If they are going to get to Verlander it has to be early before he settles down.
Lackey before he play for the Carmines was a big game pitcher for the Halos and can be tough on the bump. He has learned how to pitch since his days with the Halos and Tommy John Surgery. Can the Tigers get to him early enough to get that Red Sox Pen up and going to the Tigers favor?
