In a nut shell here is what happen>>Tigers go down again 8-5 and drop to 0-4!!
Tiger send six men to plate in the bottom of the 1st and get one run
White Sox get 2 runs on two pitches in the top of the 2nd to take the lead (a back to back doube and home run off or Nate
Tigers come back and tie the game in the bottom of the second as Pudge gets on and scores on a Clete Thomas single.
3rd inning Sox continue to ppund out doubles on Nate and push across three more runs.
bottom of the 3rd Tigers get the tthree runs back and the score remains tied 5-5 for three innings .....until Jason Grilli came in to start the 7th inning..dude gives up 5 straight hits to open the inning, including a 3 run dinger to AJ Pierzynski and before you knew the wind was out of the bag and that point you knew the Tigers were not coming back....
The bats looked like they were trying to wake up, but once again 10 runners left on base and the opposing team hits two homers to effectively win the game and our only extra base hits for the Tigers were two doubles by Pudge who combined with Clete Thomas, got 6 of the Tigers 10 hits.
If this had been a road game, I am sure the players would not have let Grilli on the bus
