The Tigers have beaten the New York Yankees. I am bouncing off of the walls!

Incredible. To lose the first game, and come back and win 3 in a row like they did, with the last two in front of their home town crowd?! Incredible. And each of the players, in their interviews, said almost the same thing: “We blew it last week. We lost the Division championship and let the fans down. Now we feel like we can celebrate, like we’ve done our job for them.” Granted, they’ve just moved to the next round, but still – they did it in grand fashion against an opponent that very few people expected them to beat.

While I was too ridiculously scheduled to see any of the Yankee games at the park, I’m working hard to get some tickets for the Oakland series!
