Detroit Tigers Team Notes Over 3 Million Views!!! Thankyou!

Matt Shoemaker & Michael Fulmer - Two pitchers that were all the buzz around podcasts and websites on Thursday, both threw very good games against each other in Anaheim. We have seen this from Shoemaker before, as his July 2015 was great, the difference this time is both experience and control. He has not walked a batter in his last three starts and struck out 31 - yes 31 batters. Fulmer on the other hand, does profile as about a 8-9 K/9 guy based on his minor league numbers, but has had some slip ups this year. I'm not sure where I heard it, but another analyst said that Fulmer has more upside while Shoemaker possess the track record and higher floor.

HOLY SH*T MICHAEL FULMER.
So obviously Shane Greene is headed for the starting rotation, right?
The Royals lost three key players, so of course they're on a winning streak.
The Tigers might be catching the White Sox at just the right time.
Majic Moonshots, we need to talk.

June 4 in Tigers and mlb history:

1906: Bill Coughlin is the second Tiger within a month to steal second base? third base? and home in a game; he does this in the 7th inning against Washington during a 13 - 4 romp. Pitcher Bill Donovan did it on May 7th. Washington ties the game at 4 apiece? but the Tigers score 9 in the last 2 innings to win. Charley O'Leary has a homer for Detroit.

1915: Ty Cobb steals home in the 9th inning of 3 - 0 Detroit win? the only steal of home that late in a game in his career. Yankee pitcher Ray Caldwell is so angry at the safe call he throws his mitt in the air and is promptly ejected by umpire Silk O'Loughlin. It is Cobb's second steal of home while Caldwell is on the mound (the first was on May 12th? 1911).

1936: The Tigers score 10 runs in the 3rd and 6 in the 5th en route to a 18 - 9 thrashing of the A's. Philadelphia scores 6 in the 9th but still comes up a bit short. Mickey Cochrane belts an inside-the-park grand slam in the 3rd and collapses after running it out and is replaced. Manager Cochrane will not be in the lineup as a player until July 15. Elden Auker goes the distance for Detroit and might have had a shutout except for 4 errors. The A's misplay 6.

1960 - Detroit's Chico Fernandez strokes a 10th-inning triple against Cleveland? and then swipes home for the final run in a 7 - 4 win. Rocky Colavito breaks out of his slump with a solo homer in the 4th and a 2-run shot in the 10th? off Dick Stigman.

1984: The Tigers break a 3 - 3 tie in the 10th when Dave Bergman golfs a three-run homer into the upper deck at Tiger Stadium. Bergman had fouled 7 pitches off Roy Lee Jackson before connecting. Howard Johnson has a three-run homer in the 7th to account for the other half of Detroit's scoring.
