Hosts T-Ray and Sanjay discuss team news, the last twelve games of Tigers baseball, roast manager Akihiro Yano for his managing blunders, name their players of the month for May, and let you know what to expect in the final three series of interleague 2022 (vs. Fighters, @ Hawks, @ Buffaloes). In the post-show show,…
OK, there was so much more to the series than just keeping young phenom Roki Sasaki out of the win column. The ace did, after all, shut out our team for six innings. The good news is that he “only” struck out 7 and we did get guys into scoring position against him. Also, Aaron…
Feels like forever since there was an NPB all-star game, doesn’t it? Perhaps it’s because the last one was played just before the start of the Olympics. Well, our team may not be #1, but we can make our guys still feel like they matter, and also prove that we FANS are #1, by voting…
No one said playing the 1st place team in the Pacific League, the Rakuten Eagles, would be easy. But with them entering this series on a 2-9 stretch, it should not have been this hard to put runs on the board. Yes, they have great starting pitching and their bullpen is pretty good. However, our…
The first half of the week featured one of the most memorable performances of the season, on any team. Junya Nishi did not throw a perfect game like Roki Sasaki did last month, and he did not hit multiple home runs, but he did pitch his first-ever complete game and also went yard as the…
Hosts T-Ray and Sanjay discuss team news, the last ten games of Tigers baseball, roast manager Akihiro Yano for his managing blunders, and let you know what to expect in the first three series of interleague 2022 (vs. Eagles, @ Marines, vs. Lions). In the post-show show, they talk about what’s going on with catchers…
It has been quite the rough go of things this season. Perhaps the truest telling of the state the team was in came during their series in Yokohama in April, in which they got swept. We NEVER get swept by the Baystars on the road. Their ballpark is our place to party, to hit like…
After winning six straight, including a sweep at Tokyo Dome against the Giants, it looked as though the Tigers were turning the corner on their season. Alas, as tends to be the case, the series after facing the Giants was a stinker. Golden Week was anything but golden as kids at Koshien were treated to…
Hosts T-Ray and Sanjay discuss team news, the last eleven games of Tigers (winning record!) baseball, and then roast manager Akihiro Yano for his managing blunders. After that, they choose their pitcher(s) and hitter(s) of the month for March/April, and talk about why the 4-20-1 Tigers are not the same as the 6-0 Tigers of…
Quick: when was the last time the Hanshin Tigers took all three games in a series against the Giants at Tokyo Dome? The answer, apparently, pre-dates H-TEN by a year. It was 2013! Junya Nishi showed us why he was worth being chosen in the first round of the 2019 draft, going 7 strong innings….
