When you start off the World Series with not only your biggest stud pitcher, but about the biggest stud pitcher in all baseball, and he gets the snot beat out of him?
Not good.
And then in game two, you manage only 2 hits and no runs?
Yep, you're just like the Black Knight in "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" after he gets both his arms chopped off.
That would be the exact position the Detroit Tigers find themselves in after getting CREAMED in game one with Justin Verlander getting pinged again and again, and then having San Francicso Giant starter Madison Bumgarner just shut 'em down in game 2.
I know it moved to Detroit and the home field thing and yeah, anything can happen - but the collective confidence/mojo/psyche of the Tigers can't be all that up, you know?
And tonight's Giant starter Ryan Vogelsong made some pretty loud bats from St. Louis go pretty quiet.
I have a feeling the Tigers are gonna be standing on just one leg at the end of tonight's game.
Okay, here's the actual legendary scene:
God, I love that movie.
