Webvideo Highlights of the Tigers Win over the orioles.

Notes and Numbers:
Detroit is 48-36 since May 8 and 17-9 since the All-Star break.

Welcome to the Show, Maple Hammer! You did it! Make Windsor proud, son. He grounded out sharply in his first at-bat, pinch-hitting for Grayson Greiner in the sixth, who tweaked a hamstring.

Since his recall from Toledo, coming into today?s game, Victor Reyes has played in 16 games; in 40 plate appearances he has batted .289 with an .800 OPS. I know it?s a small sample size, but as the old saying goes, ?It?s better than a kick in the pants.?

June 21 was the day Major League Baseball started officially cracking-down on pitchers using sticky stuff. Miguel Cabrera?s OPS this season before that date: .606. After that date: .862. Look, I?m not saying anything about correlation or causation or whatever. I?m just... noticing things, you know?

On this day in 1865, surgeon Joseph Lister did something radical at the time: he performed surgery on a compound fracture suffered by an 11-year-old boy in a horse-cart accident (ouch!). The type of surgery wasn?t radical, but the fact that he used a disinfectant to clean the wound, and would later do such crazy things as encourage other surgeons to wash their hands before surgery, sure was for the time. (In case you?re wondering, yes, Listerine was named in honour of Lister. It was originally developed as a surgical antiseptic.)

Yes !

The big number today IMO is 17-0.

Which begs a question, what is the worst defeat a team has had in one game only to win the next???

Which begs a question, what is the worst defeat a team has had in one game only to win the next???

In 1898 the Forest Whitakers lost to the Aubrey Plazas a hundred million jillion to nothing (a 22 hour long game) only to come back and edge the Plazas 1-0 in a 37 inning game the next day, which also lasted 22 hour.

FAN DAY FRIDAY.
Totally Tigers

As A. J. Hinch tweaks his roster and lineup, so do we. We like to mix things up at least twice a year to keep everything fresh and interesting, as well as to provide a discussion-based forum that so many of our readers have requested.

The players remain the same but the schedule will be changing starting next week. One open-for-discussion blog is leaving but it?s being replaced by another.

In the meantime, today?s blog is for our readers to address.

What has been your single most significant observation about the Tigers this year? Good or bad? Large or small? Big headlines or under-the-radar? Tell us, using a maximum of 8 sentences.

Good for Tork he's been struggling.

He had 2 more homers in the 2nd game. 7-7 with 3 bombs for the day.
