With a two out bases-clearing double, he plated three of the six fourth inning Tigers runs. Right after Ryan Strikeout almost doomed the inning by striking out on a pitch that bounced to home plate.
He also struck out twice, but that's okay when you've gone 10 for your last 16, and your team wins 10-5.
With tonight's win, mediocrity (.500 ball, 18-18) has at last been achieved.
-----------------------------
Tigers-Blue Jays was once the big rivalry series, when both teams were in the same division and played each other 18 times a season, before interleague play compromised the schedule.
Now, they play one home and away series. This year, six games total. The last two, next week. Done with the Blue Jays for the season.
But let's look ahead, to see who we play on Rivalry Weekend. The Pirates, in Pittsburgh? I can hardly wait. Let's find out who we play at interleague time. Our natural rivals from Arizona and Colorado, and the soon to be ownerless Dodgers. At least we get another chance to meet, greet, and beat the Mets.
