11 Run 6th

Clinging to a precarious 7-6 lead going to the bottom of the sixth inning last night against Texas, Tigers fans were treated to the home team getting three walks, two hit batters, a pair of two run doubles, a three run homer, a couple of sacrifices to score, a one run double and run scoring single. When the Rangers finally managed to get out of the inning, they had dug themselves an 18-6 hole and Detroit added another in the seventh for good measure. That sure would have been fun to watch for the home faithful!

With the win Detroit climbs out of the cellar in the AL Central, just 3 games back of the White Sox. Even with their dreadful start this year, this team is poised to make a run. Now if they could just solidify the pitching a bit ... giving up 6 in the first four innings was not the way to get rolling last night!
