The Tigers pounded out an 11 hit attack, including 3 home runs, that propelled them to a 10-2 win over the Texas Rangers in front of a paid attendance of 33,629. Justin Verlander got his first win of the year as he pitched 6 innings and allowed 1 run and 6 hits. Jacque Jones contributed with a triple [...]

Tonight Kenny Rogers started out rough giving up four runs, and the Tiger hitters left men too many men on base in the first five innings. They were unable to take advantage of 7 walks given up by David Purcey, a man called up from AAA Syracuse. In the 6th inning things changed when the Tigers [...]

We have seen the hitting come around(although not present tonight), so what is wrong with Justin Verlander? Although he had a good outing through 7 innings in Chicago on April 12, he has not been the dominant pitcher he can be in most of his starts. The Tigers need him to find his rhythm and get [...]

This was the team we have been waiting to see. Unlike Saturday in Chicago, the 8th inning was a great one for the Tigers, scoring 6 runs to take a 2 run lead. It was nice to see Pudge Rodriguez pumped up after getting the 2 run triple to tie the game. The Tigers poured it on [...]

Well here we are 133 games into the season with a 71-62 record. The Tigers are now 4 1/2 games back of the Tribe. If the Tigers would have had this record by this time in 2004 with the same position in the standings, we would have loved it. The problem is that now we [...]

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 still looked like [...]
