Phillips seems to think the radar gun at the game was accurate and that Verlander didn't have his good stuff and that's the reason the Cards jumped him.
I dunno. We all felt it was off by 5 or 6 MPH.

So I flipped over to ESPN during a commercial after the game. Jeff Brantley was there to analyze how the Cardinals put together a tremendous game one win. I was actually curious to hear what he had to say.
What do I get? Let's see . . . this game really doesn't change anything at all, Kenny Rogers is amazing, Detroit is just a great team, and absolutely NO mention of Anthony Reyes. None whatsoever.
Great job, Brantley. Nothing like spending 99% of the time talking about the team that just lost 7-2. The winners don't deserve air time.

Another example of Phillips idiocy.
When they would show their fox tracker thing, it would show the speed as 4-5 mph faster than the Fox gun.

It's not even debatable...every person who threw for
both teams was 5-6 under where they normally throw.

It's just so typical for him. He can't seem to think past simple things. He's so easily fooled (see his Reds predictions).
I want to give him the benefit of the doubt, because we really don't know how accurate the gun was, but I've got a feeling it was wrong as was Phillips.

Nope, as we said the gun was only ~5 mph off...it wasn't even close to 15 mph off.

I think Anthony Reyes must be related to this guy

What a great outing by Reyes... Talk about proving something tonight... Part of a tandem of rookies to ever start game 1 and himself having the least amount of wins ever for a starter... Way to go kid!

We saw some good base running tonight. Rolen running in to the 3rd basemen was heads up baseball.
