Miguel Cabrera has now reached safely in 18 straight postseason games, matching Hank Greenberg for the franchise record.
 
October 15 in Tigers history:

2002 - Kirk Gibson signs a three-year deal to become the bench coach of the Detroit Tigers. The aggressive former outfielder joins the staff of his former 1984 teammate on the World Champion Tigers, newly-hired Detroit manager Alan Trammell.

2011: The Texas Rangers advance to the World Series, for the second straight year by routing the Detroit Tigers, 15 - 5, in Game 6 of the ALCS. Detroit takes an early lead against Derek Holland with solo homers by Miguel Cabrera in the 1st and Jhonny Peralta in the 2nd, but the Rangers explode for 9 runs to chase Max Scherzer in the 3rd.

Tigers still need to fix their bullpen.
No 'pen problems in Game 2, but Detroit's late-game issues aren't yet solved.

Yankees really need to stop whining.
Complaining about an umpire's blown call when you don't score any runs is weak.
from espn

After all those bad calls went their way, the Yankees are now going to whine about the umpires doing them wrong? Please. Go tell your sad, $200 million tale to the Orioles, Padres, Twins and everyone else who has seen the breaks always go the Yankees' way, October after October. Because they won't want to hear it any more than did second-base umpire Jeff Nelson, who ejected Girardi for complaining about the call during a pitching change.

The Yankees are batting .205 this postseason. Alex Rodriguez, Cano, Curtis Granderson and Nick Swisher are a combined 13-for-107 with 38 strikeouts in the playoffs. After a strong finish to the regular season, Cano is hitless in his past 26 at-bats, the longest drought in Yankees postseason history. It's to the point the New York fans stood and gave A-Rod a sarcastic standing ovation for a meaningless two-out single in the ninth inning.
