10 innings is OK if you win.
Nate pitched is rear off - throwing 6 innings of shutout ball. Really nice to see him do what he has since coming off the DL. Two really strong outings. What a lift he could provide with Washburn struggling (and hurt), Armando being incredibly inconsistant (and hurt, too).
The bullpen almost blew the game when it blew an 8th inning 3-0 lead. Fu Te Ni had is first poor outing as a Tiger, allowing 2 earned runs plus 1 runner inherited from Ryan Perry. Zach Miner looked really good to finish the 8th as well as pitch the 9th and 10th innings. He gets the win for his trouble.
Big hits were from Ryan Raburn, who led off the 10th with a double, and Placido Polanco who drove in Ryan with the winning run with a sac fly.
Start a 3 game series in Tampa tonight. JV goes against Niemann. Rays are struggling to stay alive in the WC race, so they will be hungry. Tigers just need ot keep winning series. Exciting times in the D.
