This series is far from over,the Tigers have way too much fight in them to roll over at home.
Jim Leyland is a great manager,who has won more NATIONAL league games than american league games.
At the end of the game ,Fox flashed on the Tigers dugout.
A pissed off team
This is where character and chemistry come into play.
Go Giants

People in Detroit think he's terrible. The game has passed him by. He makes too many bone-headed decisions (like tonight) and is way too loyal to his "favorite" group of players even when they are sucking. Unless you've watched all season, you really have no idea how frustrating it's been with him as manager. He never has a sense of urgency, either. And BTW..Leyland is a quitter. He quit after a bad year with the Marlins, then did it again with the Rockies.
And while the Tigers are good, there is no way they are going to win 4 out of the 5 next games. I mean..their bats are in a coma. Tonight was an opportunity to get back in the series against Bumgarner who's been an absolute turd in the playoffs (6.0 ERA). And they couldn't do it. In 11 playoff games this year, Detroit has scored 3 runs or less in 7 of them! Of those 7, they were shut out twice. They made Bumgarner look like a Cy Young candidate. Sorry..this series is over. Have already sold my tickets for games 4-6.
