First inning, two outs. Miguel Cabrera makes his first plate appearance since sitting out with his hip sore.
I change my seat to sit right in front of the TV.
HOME RUN!
You know in Superman, when Lois Lane is falling to her death (again) and the superhero pulls a Neo from the Matrix and catches her, mid air?
That’s what it feels like to have “Triple Crown” on your team.
The Tigers, with two outs, weren’t finished. Prince Fielder singled. Victor Martinez singled. Jhonny Peralta singled Fielder home.
Then, Matt Tuiasosopo stepped to the plate.
HOME RUN!!!
5-0!
The Tigers weren’t done. In the second inning, they piled on three more runs for the birthday boy, Max Scherzer. 00snarf went six innings, striking out seven, and gave up one hit on no walks before letting the bullpen finish it.
10-0 was the final score.
