Detroit, MI. The Detroit Tigers improved to 31 wins and 25 losses last night with a 16 hit assault on the Rays. The thing that was most impressive about this win was how they took an 8-0 pitcher for the Rays and basically attacked the Rays pitchers all night long. After allowing one run early, Anibal Sanchez was on his game for the rest of the night. Phil Coke rebounded from Sunday’s game. The Tigers look to go up to two games to none tonight when they send Doug Fister to the mound. Can he continue to look like number 35 Verlander last season? This is a huge series, with the Tribe coming to town over the weekend. The Tribe were battling the Yankees last night in New York. With the loss the Indians fell to a game and a half behind the front running Motor City Kittys.
