This is a periodic post dedicated to the Detroit Tigers with comments presented based on how the team is doing during the season. Look for notes on players doing better, worse, staying the same or exceeding expectations. This is: The Rob Hall Report! (robhallreport.blogspot.com)
After the Tigers got swept 2 series in a row... the Mariners at home and Cleveland on the road... they came home again only to drop the first game of 4 against the Yankees for a 7-game losing streak before bringing in Scott Sizemore's bat from AAA Toledo. Sizemore went 3 for 3 in his first 3 at-bats in game 2 and ended up 3 for 4 to break the losing streak. That got the Tigers rolling, starting what would become 3 straight wins against the Eastern Division leading New York Yankees for the "almost" sweep. Up next for the Tigers is a 4-game long "wrap-around" series against Toronto, starting with a 7-4 Friday night loss, day games for the Saturday-Sunday weekend, and ending with a Monday night game. After that they hit the road again for a short 2-game series in their first meeting with a struggling Minnesota team.
