jim leyland among the best. when his team is down the most, that's when he's happiest. leadership, in my view. >> joe: he showed no panic on his face when when we went intos office tonight. >> tim: when he's up in a series, 2-0, 2-1, that's what he's suspicious. when he's down he shows his players he's not afraid, and again, that's the essence of leadership. >> joe: full count on torrealba. now the two big guns are getting ready for the tigers in their pen. fister will have to make that not relevant until the ninth. >> tim: he's the same in the eighth as he was in the first, inside to right-handed batters. he wants a fastball. >> joe: so did torrealba, as he gets it into left. one-hops the wall and he will beat torrealba, and he is safe, as the ball comes out! what a play for the texas rangers as torrealba was going to be out by ten feet. good throw by raburn out in left. >> tim: you can't take this chance when you are trailing by four in the eighth inning or any inning, for that matter. i think he knocked the ball out of the glove with his head. pops right out of santi

jim leyland has to be thrilled with the start tonight by doug fister.ness should never foe unrecognized. it was by victor martinez in the fourth. the tigers added on, they win it 5-2. they now trail in this series two games to one. so getting a chance to return home. the tigers now are on the board. we look ahead to tomorrow afternoon with hairston and porcello. now the tigers have guaranteed that justin verlander will pitch again in this series, game five on thursday afternoon. there's the pitching match-up tomorrow. hairston was good in the division series. porcello a loser in the division series. good a couple nights ago in game one. let's go to ken rosenthal. >> ken: thanks, joe. he's doug fister. joaquin benoit joked with you about pitching nine innings. it didn't look that was going to happen. how did you turn it around. >> stuck with the same game plan. they hit a few ground balls and hit it through the holes and good hitters to. they came out firing. i stuck with the game plan and used our defense. tremendous plays out there. that's the name of

we have opportunity to win this game. >> chris: that's what jim leyland told us.h 1-4-7. he will go 1-5. >> a.j.: but things change and he only threw 82 pitches. if they need him, he will be back for game four. if the they're down 2-1 and in detroit and needs to win, and rick porcello takes the mound now, you will see verlander out there. >> chris: you don't have an ulterior motive do you, use up the bullets in 2011 so you don't see him in 2012? >> a.j.: so i don't see him six times like this year? >> chris: just checking. ken rosenthal, busy bee in the tigers' dug-out. who do you have? >> ken: brandon inge, the tigers' third baseman. brandon, how frustrating is this for you guys? mounting a rally and the rain starts again. >> player: it's part of baseball. we dealt with it in new york, too. it came out fine in new york. maybe we can mount another comeback. i don't know. might work out good for us. i don't know if c.j. is coming back out. lefty on lefty so it might work out in our favor. >> ken: how about if justin won't come back either? >> player: if you leave i

jim leyland sticking with alburquerque. washington walking cabrera with one out, nobody on. >> joe: miguel cabrera with a small lead. he is not going anywhere. victor martinez at the plate. >> ball one, inside. >> tim: outfield is playing no double defense, the no-double defense for outfielders means that the outfielders doesn't necessarily have to plan to pull or anything like that. they are straightaway but they play about five feet deeper than they would normally play. for a power hitter like victor martinez. >> joe: strike one. good pitch. insiginside corner. >> joe: one ball, one strike. one on, one out. >> joe: to the right side and through it. and now miguel cabrera after the intentional walk is 90 feet away. >> tim: not only is cabrera walked intentionally, but the first baseman michael young is holding cabrera on. and that allows the ball to go through, cabrera to go to third. >> joe: a big hit by victor martinez. and the intentional walk has come back to haunt the texas rangers. who knows what miguel cabrera would

jim leyland has to be thrilled with the start tonight by doug fister. the best play of tonight's game is brought to you by the audi aa. true greatness should never foe unrecognized. it was by victor martinez in the fourth. the tigers added on, they win it 5-2. they now trail in this series two games to one. so getting a chance to return home. the tigers now are on the board. we look ahead to tomorrow afternoon with hairston and porcello. now the tigers have guaranteed that justin verlander will pitch again in this series, game five on thursday afternoon. there's the pitching match-up tomorrow. hairston was good in the division series. porcello a loser in the division series. good a couple nights ago in game one. let's go to ken rosenthal. >> ken: thanks, joe. he's doug fister. joaquin benoit joked with you about pitching nine innings. it didn't look that was going to happen. how did you turn it around. >> stuck with the same game plan. they hit a few ground balls and hit it through the holes and good hitters to. they came out firing. i stuck with the ga

i had never noticed it, but when we went in to talk to that man right there, jim leyland, who is in his sixth postseason, he was looser today than he has been at any other point we talked to him. and his team is facing elimination here tonight, as he's talking to rick porcello, which is kind of interesting. >> tim: yeah, it is. >> joe: but the point about jim leyland is as you said, in the tighter spot, he loosens up and lets his team know that everything is okay. >> tim: he's more vocal in the clubhouse, he's more vocal in the dugout. and when they are up, he's a lot tougher. leo derose was like that. leyland is the same way. >> joe: victor martinez looking to pound it. he pops it up. two out. the batter will be don kelly. >> today's game on fox sponsored by fiat, and by liberty mutual insurance. responsibility. what's your policy? >> joe: we continue in the bottom of the seventh. don kelly gets his first at-bat. napoli will trot out and talk about what they plan on doing with kelly in his first at-bat of the game. don took over for delmon young, who homered twice. the lefty, mike gonz

close and dangerous. >> joe: this was a big weapon that for the most part was not available to jim leylanding he's like our ogando. that's the kind of stuff he has when he can throw strikes, but he has looked unable to put it where he wants to this postseason. here's the 2-0. now after the warning that one goes up-and-in and kinsler looks at tom hallion and says, well? >> tim: that's a breaking ball, though. hall i don't know knows that. >> joe: here is a 3-0. 3-1. inside again and the bases are loaded. that will bring in elvis andrus, the ninth man to bat in the inning. >> tim: we talked about al alburquerque and his control problems. that's why it's very difficult to say whether that was an intentional knock-down pitch. i don't think it was. >> joe: here's one to the right side. comes up on santiago. he recovers for the out. >> tim: but it looked like it was. >> joe: we go to inning number 8. the party is on here in arlington. 15-4, rangers on top. mall horse is frowned upon in this establishment! luckily though, ya know, i conceal this bad boy underneath my blanket just so i can get on

that might be part of the point here. >> joe: jim leyland has had his day.mes. i'm sure we'll look at it again to see if the ball hit the pant leg of victor martinez. he went down to first as if he was hit. miguel cabrera kept running. initially, they were going to allow the run. >> terry: how do you tell? >> joe: they overturn the call and brought cabrera back. now a strike. he is in for raburn. we'll go down as the hit bats man. to put two on with one out. boy, holland has been in the middle of trouble every innin inning. right back in it. he walked the first time and now in a hole 0-2. >> terry: if you throw a breaking ball and hit upright on somebody's leg, you have to expect something bad to happen. >> joe: today. 0-4 with runners in scoring position. are the tigers. raburn could come up with something big. let it rip. 94-mile-per-hour fastball. still 0-2. >> terry: here is where you see the difference in the two teams right now. texas when they get on, they are going to push the envelope and they are going to run. detroit is going to have to get base h

he's won it all with jim leyland and the marlins back in '97.d as one of the best in any front office across baseball. built the marlins, built the tigers with his friend, jim leyland, and trying to get them back to the world series. they went there in '06. two balls and a strike. on the outside corner. 2-2. >> tim: an old devil moon for the tigers. >> joe: here comes the 2-2 from brad penny. andrus spoiled it. >> tim: that's the thing about the rangers this year and last year as opposed to a decade ago3 they don't strike out a lot. in fact, they struck out fewer than any other major league team. they are a group of individuals who can put the bat on the ball. they don't just stand back from their heels and launch things. >> joe: here's the 2-2. back up the middle and penny will end the inning with that play, but the rangers get two more and lead by 8 as we go to the seventh. game six. texas trying to end it tonight and head to the world series. back after this from your local fox station. p the best competeeon the streets of charm ity. the effo

that is the main concern of jim leyland. his moving about in left-field.g, moving around, and he showed that. his range was limited on that double to drive in a run by josh hamilton in game two. >> joe: torrealba had three hits last night. two singles, a double. ron washington wanted to keep his bat in the line-up as we go back to game two. in arlington. this is all delmon young could do to throw it. just blip it. from the outfield. so any base hit to left scores david murphy here easily. >> joe: a breaking ball from porcello. strike one. >> tim: also, to exploit the weakness. if you are the runner on at first base and you are the rangers, they been alerted on line drive base hits to left field. don't just stop at second. round the bag. because there is no chance for young to be throwing behind you. >> joe: that is foul. strike two. >> tim: particularly with none or one out. >> joe: we did hear from ken rosenthal that the throwing is a little better from delmon young but he is far from right. not ken rosenthal. delmon young. >> joe: 1-2, the count on torre

young has his first hit of the alcs. >> terry: jim leyland is playing for no doubles.aight up, that ground ball 5-3. >> joe: now beltre who has a pair of doubles in this game. he led off that ninth inning with a double off the wall in left center. a big holt on the right-side. tigers not looking for a bunt at all. the pitch is inside. ball one. we have not seen nelson cruz have to hit again since getting hit on the wrist. he could come up in this 11th. 2-0. napoli on deck. then cruz. >> terry: let me tell you, this could be a big swing. >> joe: perry behind on the count. as opposed to michael young, here is a guy who knows how to end the game in thrilling fashion. there is your big swing. strike one. >> terry: almost hit him. >> joe: in to center. played on a bounce. the first two are on for the rangers in the 11th. [ applause ] >> joe: third hit of this game for adrian beltre. >> joe: napoli coming up, two on, nobody out. alburquerque is the right-han right-hander. daniel schlereth is a lefty. if you are just joining us, here is a summary. there hasn't been a lot of s
