Those booms are the sounds made by this afternoon's three Blue Jay home runs, struck by Edwin Encarnacion, Yuniel Escobar, Colby Rasmus.
Two were solo shots, and that's not necessarily bad. There are pitchers in the Hall of Fame who gave up loads of solo home runs. Your guys have to score, and the Tigers, in the past 72 hours, have gone from Wonderfulness to playing a tepid brand of ball in which touching home plate is considered an afterthought.
They dented the dish once today, on a Boesch double, the only extra base hit of five Henderson Alvarez allowed.
The three losses leave the Pretenders two games out, pending the outcome of tonight's White Sox game in Arlington.
