Game 42: Record 24-18

Lack of offense + good pitching = loss

Low scoring game and another good outing by Dontrelle. Our Tigers had lots and lots of opportunities to put runs on the board that would have gotten them a win today, but could not come up with the big hit they needed.

D-Train's like: 6.2 IP, 7 H, 3 ER, 4 BB, 4 SO. Start #2 is quality start #2 for Willis. But the offense was quite offensive today. For the 2nd straight game, the top 3 spots in the lineup did not produce a single hit. This is not how you set the table for Miguel and allow him to do what he does. When Miguel is consistantly coming up to bat with nobody on base, the opposition is quite happy. This is what the Rockies did the last two games and they got two wins to show for it.

Huge 3 games against Royals begin tomorrow.

Verlander v Meche on Monday, then Jackson v Grienke on Tuesday. Outstanding. Cannot wait.
