42K For Day Baseball At Wrigley

They oughta go out and get a bleepin job and find out what it's like to earn a living! The bleepers don't even work! That's why they're out at the bleepin game! Seventy percent of the world's workin! The other thirty come out to Wrigley ...  it's a playground for the bleepers ...


120K came out to see the Cubs and Tigers play; a record for a three game series at Wrigley. Today's attendance: 42, 292 good for nothing lowlifes who don't have jobs, and have nothing better to do besides come out to see day baseball. A sizeable portion of them were rooting for the Tigers. (Got guys bustin' their butts and people cheer for the other team. That's the Cubs?) If you didn't already know the game was at Wrigley, you'd think they were playing at Comerica. 

Don Kelly pinch hit a triple in the eighth (slide, Kelly, slide!) and scored on Austin Jackson's homer. Jackson drove in three of the Tigers' five runs, also plating Ryan Raburn with a seventh inning single.


Who? Yes, Rugburn is back. He went to Toledo and didn't get his groove back (hit .194 there) but came up when Drew Smyly went on the DL because they need right handed hitters and, according to Skipper Leyland, no one else deserved the opportunity.


Rugburn went 2 for 3 today, raising his average with the Tigers to .159. 

Justin Verlander went eight and allowed five hits. Charlie Brown allowed a run in the ninth, but finished off the bear cubbies by striking out Alfonso Soriano to end the game.
