Comeback Kids

Tigers W 4-3, (8-7 overall, 3 games back in AL Central behind Twins)
Shit is ridiculous. Cabrera is ridiculous. Another 9th inning home run to tie it up, followed by a Santiago blooper that scored Laird and that was the differnce maker. This season, Carebrera is 9-for-20 with three home runs and 11 RBIs from the seventh through ninth innings, including 4-for-7 with two homers in the ninth. What? What? Might as well call him the Dark Knight cus the dude only comes into save the game when the lights are low. He's a utility belt away from being a superhero.

Here's the most ridiculous paragraph from the recap of yesterday's game:

The number of comebacks through just three weeks are getting more difficult to believe. The Tigers are now 5-5 when trailing after six innings. They've erased three ninth-inning deficits, winning two of those games and losing another in extra innings. They now have a better record when the opponent scores first (6-5) than when they do (2-2). -Detroittigers.com

And props to Gerald Laird for some good base running yesterday. Yep, you read that correctly, Gerald Laird, good, and base running in the same sentence. It's kind of a big deal. Bondo also gave up 3 runs in like the first three batters, but settled down to allow just 2 more hits in the rest of the game. Good job.
