Game 77: Record 43-34

Two words I have been wanting to say since April - Armando dominates!

Armando Galarraga was really good in a nice Tigers win on Tuesday. He overcame more bad defense by Adam Everett (one error and another misplay that wasn't called an error) and Ryan Raburn (error). AG's line:

6.1 IP, 2 H, 1 ER, 6 BB, 5 SO. Too many walks, but very good job and much needed win for him.

F-Rod pitched the ninth and nearly blew it, but got out of the game to preserve the win...barely.

Placido went deep yet again. This is nice when he clears the fence, but makes me nervous that he his pulling the ball so much. He will not be hitting .300 come October if he continues to try to be a power hitter. He needs to dink and dunk the ball around for base hits and let Miguel drive him in.
