Breathing Easier

Well, the Tigers are trying to shorten my life. What a week of baseball for the Tigs. Yesterday was a huge win for the Tigers as Nate Robertson came through. It has been a tough season for Nate and I am sure it has tried his faith, but the elbow surgery seems to have helped and the slider is back and Nate pitched really well yesterday. About 100 pitches and what a game it was. Who would have thought Nate would get to win such a big game.

Question? What was Don Kelly doing in the game Saturday night? He had not played at the Dome and as tough as it is to see the ball there, why not play someone out there for "defensive purposes" that has played out there? That loss is squarely on Leyland's shoulders in my mind. JV pitched his guts out again and comes up empty. I am guessing he feels a little snake bit.

Need to win 2 of 3 in these next 2 series on the road at Cleveland and Chicago. Then the last 6 at home. Can they win it? the next 2 weeks will tell the story......Go Tigers!!!
