The Tigers will open a 3 game series with the Padres tomorrow night in San Diego. The Tigers have cut the White Sox lead from 11 to 6 1/2 games in about a week or so. They seem to be on a roll and headed in the right direction. Time will tell. For now I am back on the Bandwagon. Rose thinks I am nuts, but hey what can I say, GO TIGERS!
I was in Detroit last week to see the Tigs and saw Miggy hit a HR to win the game in the bottom of the 9th 2-1. Great game. 2 Hours and 10 minutes of beautiful baseball. It has been hard on the sleep this week with the Tigers on the left coast. They should have swept the Giants, but we will take 2 out of 3. Stinkin' Fernando Rodney! Polanco is on fire and the offense seems to be coming around for good. Where would the Tigers be without Garragala? Even farther behind.
Zumaya is back tomorrow night and the Tigers have sent down Clevelan and activated Clete Thomas from the DL. Went to see the Mud Hens play Monday and saw Clete playing. 2 run HR and a 2 run double as well as another single and stolen base. By the end of the night the uniform was filthy. You know you had a great game when you are that dirty.
What can you say about Marcus Thames? He is one of my favorites because of his attitude, his faith and his ability to come through when called upon. I hope he gets to play long term and show what he can do given 500 at bats.
Well, the day is done and supper is on the stove. What to do tonight? No Baseball.....
get on the Goldwing and ride.
