The Tigers complete their first sweep of the season (and first in an NL stadium in a long time) against the Pirates to move to 8-5 on the year. Luke and Alex wrap up the series that produced 30 runs on 36 hits, but still featured 40 strikeouts. Alex asks if that's actually the problem we all might feel it is. Luke defends Shep and Gibby. They discuss whether or not MLB should consider a bubble for the playoffs. Then, they preview the upcoming week, which features 8 games in 7 days.
