| Re: TIGERBEAT presented by Stroh's Yeah the game ended at 12:32AM here on the west coast and the Tiger fan/posters on the Det News site hung in there along with the diehard sleepy fans at Comerica to see the Tiger batters squander many opportunities to win this one before daybreak. Luckily the five tiger relievers held the Yankees in check until the tigers "woke-up" to win this with the Guillen walk off home run at 3:30 in the moanin"
Although Casey got a timely hit in the 11th and scored the winning run, we still got problems with him, Pudge and Inge as it relates to hitting. Both Pudge and Inge managed to get walks last night and score, but still those two are rally killers as it relates to relying on them for clutch hits. Pudge strikes out or pops out by swinging at balls and Inge just strikes because that is what he is good at! The Tigs had 11 hits last night (today) and Maggs and Grandy had 8 of them with Guillen getting 2 and Casey 1. The rest of the batters just slept....
Every time the Tigs got a Miller a lead he gave it back with the usual walk and he never had a 1-2-3 inning. Lets hope that Bonderman was at home sleeping during this midnite affair so that he is well rested tonight and can get thru to the 7th or 8th inning and keep this short winning streak going!!
