A quick glance at the box score shows the sixth inning of tonight’s Angels-Tigers game as a rather uneventful frame, but such a notion could not be further from the truth.
Noe Ramirez took the mound (following Nick Tropeano’s early exit after a solid 62 pitches of 1-run ball over five innings; hopefully no notable injury news on him) and after losing an 8-pitch walk to James McCann, put the first runner on base. After a single up the middle, a walk, and another single, the bases were loaded and a run had scored to narrow the game to 4-2.
