BlakChamber 8 Report post Posted September 9, 2006 Yeah, the Tigs schedule definitely favors them over Chicago and Minny. What happened last night? I was following the game online, and stopped when it was 4-2 in the 5th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lou_Siffer 1 Report post Posted September 9, 2006 I found these stats to be pretty interesting.. Want a model for the 2006 Tigers? How about the 2005 White Sox, the eventual World Series champions, whose numbers through 141 games – particularly the pitching – look quite similar those Detroit has posted this season.

Lou_Siffer 1 Report post Posted September 17, 2006 When's the last time the Tigers have won a series? I honestly cant remember, i was gonna say the White Sox but that was a 2-2 split. Hmmm..... Why is it that it seems like every AFLAC trivia question has to do with Jack Morris and a staff from the 80's? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlakChamber 8 Report post Posted September 17, 2006 The last series the Tigers won was taking 2 out of 3 in Boston, August 14th, 15th, & 16th. I'd say we were due for a series win. And, Chicago lost, but Minnesota won tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lou_Siffer 1 Report post Posted September 17, 2006 And thats great news, all i care about is what the team furthest away from our spot did, i just wanna get in the playoffs! I still think Chicago will overtake Minnesota though, even though they keep winning i still sense a losing streak coming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They showed him doing some batting practice even during one of the last games. He was my tiger before he got injured and Magglio has been acting as my pinch Tiger while he's out. Someone also mentioned Todd Jones love, so here's a little story for anyone who cares: Among my friends for some reason we began yelling Todd Jones at the top of our lungs at random times. So my boyfriend went to a bachelor party that included a Tigers game, and they were sitting high above the dugout. My wasted boyfriend was yelling out Todd Jones for most of the game. Todd Jones came out at one point to do some stretches and my boyfriend leaned over and yelled Todd Jones continually for a few minutes. At the end of his stretches he looks up at my boyfriend and gives him the rock'n'roll sign, and then walked off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
