Greene is batting .259
Tork is batting .254 after the doubleheader.

Soon they will both hit in the same game hopefully!

 

[biggunsbob]

Isn't Tork the better fielder at 1st base ? Probably because he played the double header yesterday maybe ?

 

[biggunsbob]

Go Tigers ! Keep it rolling on Star Wars night !

 

[biggunsbob]

Skubal strikes out two in the top of the first. First two batters.

Benetti is awful with his fly ball calls tonight. He's making every fly ball sound like a homer and they haven't been close.
