Tigers, Tigers, Tigers
What a game last night! 6-3 lead in the bottom of the 9th and Fernando goes Fernando and walks the first 3 batters! Lyon comes in gives up a double and the score is tied! Geez! Miggy comes up in the 10th and hits bomb and Tigers fans go to bed happy. With Verlander and Jackson going the next 2 nights, it would be great to take 4 of 5 from the White Sox! Take that Manager Guillen! But let's see what happens tonight and see if they can score some runs.
Interleague play starts and I say there is too much of that. I would rather play the Red Sox or Yankees again myself. May 6 games, not like 20! Pitchers hitting is good and I like the pureness of a no DH game...but come on not so many games outside the American League.
Less than 2 weeks till a vacation on the motorcycle. We are ready to go. Rose is painting the inside of the house and it is a mess. I just stay in the barn. I told her she needs to be done before we leave!

TIger Stadium is a Goner!
They can't do it can they? Oh yes they can if this artcle is any indication.

I so hoped they would save part of the stadium for a mueseum, save the field for kids to have a sort of "Field of Dreams" for the Tigers of old. but no, nothing is preserved, nothing cherished these days. Just tear away anything that once stood for something grand. Can they tear down Wrigley Field? How about tearing down the Green Monster at Fenway? Anything is possible I guess. At least the Yankees, and I really do hate them, did it right with their new stadium making it look like old Yankee Stadium. If the Tigers would have brought anything to the new stadium...over hang in RF or the closeness of the field and upper deck....something, but no we have a ferris wheel and merry-go-round! Wow, what a sad day it is.....Tiger Stadium....Ghosts of Tigers past, The Bird, Charlie Gerhringer, Hank Greenburg, Norm Cash...Rest in Peace....
