Lucky break for the Tigers as they continue to hold on to the lead by that half game despite losing a game that a league leader should have won. Twins bungle an infield hit and "I love it when the call me big papi" goes out of yard twice and the Twins are shut out 6-0.

Even with the favorable schedule these last nine games, the Tigers will keep the fans on edge for the rest of the month

Nice. It seems like a while since the Tigers won and the Twins lost. The White Sox are losing too.

Magic number for the division =8 (Any combo of Tiger wins & Twin losses)

Magic number for the wild Card =2 (if the Sox lose or 3 if they win tonight).

Go get em' Tigers

Hey, they're playing my Blue Jays next week. Take it easy with the "favorable schedule" stuff.

I'm going to the Wednesday game. I've been to plenty of games at old Tiger Stadium, but this will be my first time at Comerica.

White Sox came back and beat Seattle.

Twins came back and are up on Baltimore.

Tigers play in a bit.

10-0 Tigers after the first.

Where has this team been the last month? KC will cure all that ails them.

Redman was horrible, 1/3 of an inning! That was the worst pitching performance I've seen in a looong time...

Magic number for the division =7 (Any combo of Tiger wins & Twin losses)

Magic number for the wild Card =1 (One Sox loss or Tiger win and we are back in the playoffs after soooo many years!)

Can't wait until this team clinches. It's been a long time for us Tigers fans. 19 long years. I don't think the true fans should have to wait that long so I don't subscribe to the "wait was worth it" philosophy either. I subscribe to the "it's about time" mentality.

The Tigers are absolutely killing the royals again, 9-0 in the second inning. For the second game in a row, a KC pitcher didn't make it out of the second. Tigers can clinch a playoff birth a win today (and it would be a maricle to KC if they gave this game away!)

WOOHOO!
