Re: TIGERS 08 SEASON THREAD

Kind of a strange game last night, but the Tigs win 5-2. Willis landed awkwardly on a pitch in the 1st and went out with a hyper extended knee, but Lopez, Grilli and Bautista did a pretty good job setting up Jones for the save.

WHO is Clete Thomas? The rook looked like All-Star material last night. Listed at 5'11" 195#, his power is apparently deceptive. He doubled in a run off the opposite field wall in LC with a swing that looked like a pop-out to me. The next inning, he runs down a ball hit down the line and throws a perfect one-hopper to 2nd in time to easily take away what I thought was a sure double. This guy looks like a great all-around ballplayer.
