00:00So the Tigers, I had them as well.
00:02They win 13-1 over the White Sox on the south side.
00:07And Flaherty went six.
00:09The difference, he gave up one earned run, four strikeouts.
00:12Two great starts in a row for Flaherty.
00:15I think he's gotten out of his funk and started a pitch like he did last year
00:19when he was so good in Detroit, went to the Dodgers, won a ring,
00:23came back to Detroit.
00:24When he started this year, he was awful.
00:26Well, now he's pitching again like the Flaherty that makes the good money,
00:30which he's making now in Detroit.
00:32They have the first team to 40 wins in the AL or in baseball, I think, in general, right?
00:39Four Tigers with multiple RBIs, first team to 40, as I said.
00:43Kerry Carpenter, how about this guy?
00:45Carver High had him last night to ring the bell, not only once, not twice.
00:50How does three home runs sound?
00:53Here he hits his third of the game on FanDuel Sportsnet.
00:58...infield there.
01:00Kerry, one more time.
01:03Kerry Carpenter's got two.
01:05He has three.
01:09I mean, wasn't it like, you know, Carpenter, do you remember the guy that they,
01:14this is different Carpenter.
01:15Remember the Carpenter the Yankees had like last year that retired?
01:19That was, he came up and he was hot.
01:21Remember, he was hot for like two months and he was hitting like 350 for two months.
01:26He retired.
01:26This is not him.
01:28This is, I think, Jesus' father, right, was a Carpenter.
01:31I think that's this guy.
01:35I don't think, he didn't hit three home runs and three at-bats, though.
01:39I don't think.
01:40He couldn't even get a room at the end.
01:41He couldn't get a room at the end.
01:43Yep, that's correct.
01:44Yep, that's correct.
01:46Now, all the Carpenters seemed to be able to get the bat on the ball, but that game was over.
01:52You know, listen, you and I can look really good like Flaherty did if you spot us 13 runs there,
01:57Scotty, against the White Sox.
01:59And Carpenter, listen, what can you say?
02:0140, did you have 40 and 21 at this point in the season for Detroit on your bigger guard?
02:06No, but I thought, listen, Joe, I thought Hinch did a great job last year with the run
02:12that they went on over the last two months to get into the playoffs.
02:16I thought they were the best story in baseball last year.
02:19And the fact that that guy has come out again and they are winning again, and not only winning
02:25at the best record, first to 40, and they're kicking everyone's ass.
02:29It really is a testament to how good of a manager he is, even though he spent years in Houston
02:34cheating.
02:35Well, yeah, I heard they removed all the garbage cans in the behind home plate, but that's
02:43a different story.
02:4422-9 in their last 31 games, Scotty, what the Detroit Tigers are.
02:49It's crazy.
