Go Tigers!!!! So they're on a 4 game losing streak. Big deal. They're still playing very well. It was a long night last night, though. As part of my 8 game Saturday package we received one Yankees game. That was last night (Wednesday). There was also this storm of biblical proportions that decided to blow through town last night, so after a rain delay of approximately one and a half hours we finally got the game going. It's funny how you can tell the baseball fans from the "social" (drinking?) crowd. Those of us that were really there to see the game brought our ponchos and foul weather gear. We were few and far between. For everyone else the delay wasn't so bad....we all had to hang in the concourse so there was as much drinking as they could handle anyway.
The game was closer than it sounds from the score. I think it ended up 7-1 Yankees, but at the time we left, after the 5th, it was only 2-0 Yankees. Frankly the Yankees wouldn't have had at least one of those runs if the ump hadn't have been helping them all night. An incredibly inconsistent strike zone and being out of position to call crucial plays really was not endearing him to the crowd.
This is still the most fun I've had in a while with the Tigers. What a year to get a game package, eh?
