Tigers Top Tribe 5-1

That game, in a word, sucked.

Detroit's pitching was outstanding. Starter Rogers went 8 innings and gave up The Tribe's only run in the 6th. Rodney got the save for Detroit. The Tigers' bats were on freaking fire last night. 11 hits. 11! They deserved to win. Granderson, Shelton, Guillen, and Inge all had two hits a piece, and Ordonez, Young, and Polanco also had a hit each.

Jake pitched his first losing game of the season, and was replaced by Davis in the 7th, who actually didn't make things any worse. Cleveland still had 8 hits on the night, the boys just sucked ass at getting base runners home. Michaels, Blake, and Victor all had two hits. Grady, and Pronk each had a hit as well.

The Tribe is now tried for first place in the Central with Detroit. ChiSux, and the Twins are1 game back, and KC is back 3.5.

We get our first look at Carmona this afternoon, who is up in place of C.C. The Tigers are starting Bonderman who has like a 6-something ERA against The Tribe. I'm keepin' the faith, baby. The Tribe can take the series.
