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.
