I love seeing ANY team beat up on Mark Buerhle — even the #Twins…as long as the #Tigers have a 10-run lead. # On this date in 2000, former #Tigers 3B Aurelio Rodriguez was killed by a car in Detroit. He was 53. http://bit.ly/18TW59 # On this date in 1984, Sparky Anderson becomes the first [...]

ESPN highlights available here. The Score: Tigers 3 – Indians 1 The Gist: Two things returned to form on Monday night in Cleveland: Edwin Jackson (13-7) pitching deep into the game holding the Indians at bay, and the Tigers’ offense oversleeping as it usually does when Jackson starts.

The Tigers must be enjoying their last day off this season, albeit in Cleveland. While they rest up for the final two weeks, we’re left to root for the White Sox to wear down the Twins over the next three days.
