Finally, My Boys Step Up to the Plate

The Tigers were supposed to be the team to beat this year, and I couldn’t have been happier. A fan from the time I was born, I’ve suffered through every season since the magical 1984 World Series. Then this year, we start with high hopes! and excitement! and it leads to….an 0-7 start?!?? REALLY?!?! It’s ok, boys… I still love you. They got their first win last night against the Red Sox (take that, Boston!), with my Tigers Carlos Guillen hitting a home run in the ninth, and Pudge Rodriguez getting is 2500th hit in the 8th. The full run down and box scores here.
