It's almost as if putting a bunch of baserunners on will come back to haunt a pitching staff over nine innings. #Tigers

Pitching blows up in one bad inning. Lots of baserunners but never a key hit. #Tigers really are trying to repeat August and September of last year all over again. It's bad when you can predict what's not going to happen on every at-bat from your living room.

Neither Jack Flaherty nor Drew Anderson deserve the win today, and the way things are going, the #Tigers might not get one anyway despite having a 7-1 lead at one point.

The forecast for Detroit tomorrow is day-long rain. That ought to make for a possible odd split doubleheader Sunday for the #Tigers, given they've got the national broadcast night game against the Cardinals. They obviously would love to sneak tomorrow's game in somehow.

#Tigers Kevin McGonigle cannot catch a break. Doubled up twice in Arizona, now thrown out at third after a double. Maybe the next guy up shouldn't hit the ball right at a defender?

Not a single one since Shepard where I didn't feel exhilaration and dread at the same moment. Mom and I watched every Mercury launch from the front yard in Indian Harbour Beach, waiting until we couldn't see anything but the contrails.

I was at the Challenger launch as a reporter. I watched all Mercury launches from the front yard as a kid. I am always nervous and awed by the power and danger with every manned flight.

#Tigers are not only in a teamwide slump, when they do hit it well, they refuse to capitalize. Just can't understand they love wasting Tarik Skubal starts like this. SCORE SOME RUNS.

Glad the #Tigers really didn't think they needed to upgrade their offense from last year's massive swoon after the All Star Break. One big inning a game and then the bats going to sleep is a strategy that's not particularly successful.

@ollie209.bsky.social A very merry Unbirthday to my favorite Merced chick! #AT40

#Tigers have left five men on base in three scoreless innings while Justin Verlander has been ... not good. Bedtime for me. Get 'em tomorrow.

#Tigers sleepwalking through this one in San Diego. Vasquez is good but not eight strikeouts in five innings good. Colt Keith is 2-for-2 and the rest of the lineup is 0-for-the evening.

So it won't be the Last Song you'll ever play for me?

If anyone knows what's out of the strike zone but too far to swing at, it would be Javier Baez.

I hope Greg Gania is the heir apparent to Dan Dickerson if he ever decides retirement is an option. Gania is prepared and professional every time he gets the opportunity. He'd be a great addition to a very long line of excellent Tiger radio broadcasters.

A hit song based on one bar of the bridge from "More, More, More" by Andrea True Connection. 1976 is impressed!

An annual rite of spring at St. Pete for @indycar.com: Santino Ferrucci getting wrecked before the field completes one lap. A major reason why I went yesterday instead of today.

Why does this feel like a lineup we might see for the #tigers sooner than later once the season starts? Parker Meadows needs to hit to keep his job and Kevin McGonigle keeps his hit to take it away.

And I can see Highway 41 up the road from our winter home here in Florida. Not many Greyhound buses on it (or birthing babies). But lots of FedEx trucks because there's a huge distribution center about two miles away. #AT40

Also very picky.

The video was shot in San Francisco's Presidio, including the military cemetery where my in-laws are buried, overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge. Love this song so much. #AT40

Got decent airplay on KFRC as well. I really thought it was early "America." Wrong country.

Thanksgiving 1978 from my family to all my #AT40 family! Keep reaching for the ... second helpings!

The only reason to keep watching is to see if the Gators keep their scoring streak alive. It's not looking likely.

When I grow up, I want to be a Pip! #AT40

A song that gets more poignant as I grow old and gray. When you're 15, you don't even consider the fact that you and the people you know won't live forever. It's almost like Ringo was singing about John and George. #AT40

Apparently they fly to their next gig on those shirt collars. #AT40

Oh, the sleeveless sweater vests with the round necks! Absolutely screams 1973. #AT40

The RV park in Palmetto, Fla., where we spend winters is right off Highway 41. Lord, I was born a ramblin' man. #AT40

As was my mother in law! Small world. We've gone back to Grand Rapids. Gwen's mother lived close enough to the Gumps where they played together before Judy moved to California.

1973? I celebrated my 15th birthday by washing the dog. Schlitz (schnauzers need a good German name) wouldn't let anyone else pick him up, let alone scrub-a-dub-dub. I see I'm getting into my rebellious hair stage! #AT40

And North Gwinnett and Brookwood are about 10 miles apart. So Brookwood and Lowndes could have played near the Buc-ee's outside of Warner Robins and saved themselves the trouble. GHSAA is one stupid group.

Crocker Bank! My first checking account was with them. And yeah, the Bay Area was a very screwed up place in the 1970s. #AT40

Does it feel like the first time? Are you a long, long way from home? This sounds urgent.

"You Never Done It Like That" was my favorite Captain and Tennille song. #AT40

Until this Barry Manilow song. #AT40

And clips the F-word for G-rated audiences.

You and I had the same thought!

"Reminiscing" had a retro 1940s jazz vibe in 1978, which would be like someone reminiscing about Nirvana now. #AT40

Well, the picture is changing now you're part of a crowd They're laughing at something, and the music's loud A girl comes towards you, you once used to know You reach out your hand, but you're all alone in those Time passages (That verse always gets to me)

Yeah, "It paid for my mansion but I cringe every time I get on an elevator and Time Passages is playing."

"Time Passages!" I love this song, but Al Stewart said his record label wanted another song that sounded like "Year Of The Cat" instead of his insistence of writing songs about historical events. So he wrote music you'll hear in every dentist's office today. #AT40

The last of the three songs that teased the top 10 for Firefall. "Just Remember I Love You" and "Strange Way" wound up at 11. #AT40

And as a young radio guy, I got to play all the music that creates those same memories for Gen X. Music is our universal connection. Thank you for tuning in.

"Approximately six Disco hits on the charts this week!" Oh, Kasey! You're so square. #AT40

Paul Davis. John Paul Young. Paul McCartney and Wings. This is an a-Pauling #AT40.

Man, the four girls in the apartment above us played this album from "Heart" so loud it used to shake the ceiling fan. #AT40

Fall of 1978? I'm in my junior year at the University of Florida, finally working air shifts at WRUF-AM. And sporting serious bushy hair (shaved off the beard that made me look like the Burger King). #AT40

That, or "Roll On Down The Highway" by BTO. #AT40

Thank goodness you didn't sing "Stairway to Heaven!" #AT40
