Twelve Runs? See How You Like Them, Wise Guy!

Tonight it was the Tigers' turn to score twelve. 

Brennan Bash hit his 15th homer.  Victor Martinez and Carlos Guillen each drove in four, off unusually ineffective Angel pitching. Ramon Santiago got three hits in the ninth spot. Andy Dirks scored three times, and got the four-run sixth started by sticking out his hip and taking one for the team. 

The Indians also gave up a dozen, at home to the Royals. The loss, combined with the Tigers win, gives the Tigers their biggest lead of the season, 2.5 games.

Research has revealed that "Vieni sul mar" ("Come To The Sea"), an Italian popular song of the early twentieth century,  is the song Gino Corrado tries to sing in "Micro-Phonies," three times, each time foiled by a Stooges-propelled cherry. 

If only a certain few Tigers pitchers had that kind of command. 

And how did that one guy just happen to have a bowl of cherries in his hand at exactly the wrong time?
