Toronto – Blue Jays television analyst Buck Martinez played 17 years in the big leagues. He managed and coached in the big leagues. There isn’t much that he watches on a daily basis that he hasn’t seen before. But some of the things skipper AJ Hinch did in the Tigers’ 4-1 win here Friday -- if they didn't flat-out surprise him, they at least made him raise his eyebrows.
Martinez commented throughout the broadcast about how differently Hinch managed a tie game on the road. Having his catcher drop a sacrifice bunt in the eighth inning.
