I hopped on my jinx horse for breakfast. That must be it = The Tigers left me a 7-1 lead and then the Orioles scored five runs.
Phil Coke let the first two in, then Al-Al made a nice pitch but the outfield and infield converged and couldn’t get the catch. Luckily, Joe Nathan came in and earned the first save in a Tiger uniform for his career.
7-6 was the final. “It was the Torii Hunter show,” said oldschool. Hunter smacked another home run and doubled in everybody with the bases loaded. Don Kelly also chipped in nicely, scoring that crucial 7th run after Rajaj Davis sacrifice flied him home. Kelly had tripled and reached base two other times I saw as well.
