Friday

The Tigers needed four things:

#1 Victor Martinez – VMart drained a three-run homer after Miguel Cabrera was walked intentionally. The at-bat was described by one Tiger as “one of the greatest at-bats he’s ever seen.” A 10-pitch battle.

#2 Justin Verlander – The ace picked up another win with 7 2/3 innings pitched and three runs allowed.

#3 Miguel Cabrera – Cabrera’s two-run homer as I turned on the TV made me feel special.

#4 Rajai Davis – The speedster catapulted his fourth home run into the Safeco seats to finish the scoring in favor of Detroit, 6-3.
