There are 2 players tied for MLB lead in hits. They each have 24. Their names are Torii Hunter and Austin Jackson. GoTigers.
 
After last nights audio and video tv and computer glitches that upset many, this should also frustrate some hardcore Tigers fans.

Detroit Tigers' Austin Jackson shows knack for hitting with two strikes with key walk in win over Seattle Mariners.
from Mlive

In the past three seasons, Jackson has fallen into an 0-2 hole 391 times. He ended up striking out in 213 of those at-bats. But not this time.

Jackson fouled off an 80-mph slider. Then he fouled off a 92-mph fastball. Then he fouled off another 80-mph slider. Then he took a ball in the dirt.

Jackson is clearly a better hitter overall and especially with two strikes. Here are his numbers year-by-year after he falls behind 0-2 in the count:

?2013: 4-for-11 (.364), two RBIs, 1 BB, 2 SOs.
?2012: 20-for-120 (.167), four RBIs, 7 BBs, 59 SOs.
?2011: 19-for-141 (.135), four RBIs, 7 BBs, 80 SOs.
?2010: 30-for-130 (.231), four RBIs, 6 BBs, 74 SOs.
Small sample size for 2013? Of course it is. But Jackson is already halfway to his RBI total after falling behind 0-2 for each of the past three seasons. And the walk he drew Tuesday night gave the Tigers some important breathing room considering how their bullpen has performed so far this season.

MLB Notebook: Dynamic duo powering Tigers.
Cabrera and Fielder have each had multiple four-RBI games this season.
Last season, Detroit's Miguel Cabrera and Prince Fielder combined to drive in 247 runs -- the most in the Major Leagues for any pair of teammates, and the most for a Tigers duo since Rocky Colavito and Norm Cash combined for 272 RBIs in 1961.

Fielder -- starting all 162 games in the cleanup spot -- drove himself in 30 times and plated Cabrera 24 times and Austin Jackson 22 times. Cabrera -- the No. 3 hitter in all 161 of his starts in 2012 -- drove himself in 44 times and drove in Jackson 38 times. With Cabrera and Fielder again stationed back to back in the No. 3 and No. 4 spots in the Tigers' order, and with both leadoff man Jackson and two-hole hitter Torii Hunter off to blazing starts, one wonders if that combined RBI total from last year could be surpassed this season.

Cabrera drove in four runs as part of a three-hit night Tuesday, and the Tigers defeated the Mariners, 6-2, to improve to 8-5. Cabrera has a pair of four-RBI games already this season, as does Fielder. The last time teammates each had a pair of games with at least four RBIs so early in the season was in 2005, when the Giants' Michael Tucker and Pedro Feliz each had two. Dating back to 1916, this is the first time the Tigers have had teammates do it this early.

Hunter went 2-for-4, giving him his Major League-leading ninth multihit game of the season. Since 1916, only two other Tigers players have had as many as nine through the club's first 13 games: Dale Alexander in '31 and Charlie Gehringer in '36.

Jackson had a pair of hits and scored a pair of runs in the Tigers' win. He now has scored at least one run in 11 of the team's first 13 games, and he leads the Majors with 19 runs scored. Since 1916, Jackson is one of four Tigers to score a run in 11 of the club's first 13 contests. Al Kaline did it in '67, and Gehringer did it in '29 and '36.
