That's how important the Indians series is, even at this somewhat early point in the season, with the Tigers and Indians tied for the top spot and neither able to shake the other to take control of the division race.
The Tribe reclaimed first by a game with a 6-4 win.
There should be a brand of wine named Wild Pitch. It has a ready-made advertising slogan. Cut to ad; soft music playing, candlelight, man and woman -- presumably both baseball fans -- gaze lovingly into each other's eyes, voice-over announcer speaks: "Increase your chances of scoring ... uncork a Wild Pitch .."
