Finally Some Traction

Rob Sanford

Two games....two walk off wins. Now that's more like it.  A run scoring single by Miguel Cabrera and a home run from Brandon Inge spelled victory and taking 2 out of 3 from a red hot Texas Rangers team. Of course Manager Jim Leyland took it all in stride, saying there is no such thing as momentum...that you're only as good as your next game pitcher. He's probably right, but it's nice to start a west coast trip with two straight wins.

I'm concerned about Magglio Ordonez and his ankle problems. It may be just a residual effect of his surgery, lets hope so. Ordonez has been out with a sore ankle issue, the doctors saying its a build up of fluid. Ick. The Tigers need him healthy and hitting...so lets keep our fingers crossed that he can come back soon.
