The Tigers did what they had to and got the first win against New York in the Bronx. It should give them a feeling of confidence tomorrow. Carlos Guillen hitting the grand slam in the first set the tone, and they never relinquished the lead. Despite what happened in the 9th, it [...]

It was nice to see the Tigers win last night. Nice to see them win two in a row for the first time since they swept the Twins in Minnesota. It was heartbraking to see Nate Robertson pitch his heart out only to see Jason Grilli come in and not retire a batter [...]
