First pitch out of the gate and Reyes grooves a fastball at the very bottom of the strike zone on the outside corner.

Comes back with high heat inside.

Curve inside.

Fastball in on the hands.

Now that's a nice aggressive pitch progression!

I think the radar gun was off so I'll spare the "topping at 86!?" comment...

However... he just looked like the same guy from the NLCS. Scared to pitch in the strike zone!

He's looking a lot better this inning.

The radar gun is definitely off...Verlander's FB is hittin 89 occasionally.

I don't think so.

Reyes is probably sitting 89-90 with Verlander 95-96.

Molina with a nice piece of hitting to fight off that inside pitch.

That wide strike has been a pretty inconsistent call so far...I'd say about 50-50.

Taguchi with a nice defensive swing on the hit and run to keep Yadi from being a SB victim....effectively a bunt.

Freaknig nasty curve from Verlander to get Eckstein looking.

Duncan delivers with an RBI 2-out double!

Can you hear that sound Detroit? That's the Cardinal's alarm clock waking up their bats.
