Detroit Tigers & Nagoya, Japan!

Last night Sam & I slipped out for a Tigers game quick before our honeymoon to Japan. We tried getting tickets for Friday or Saturday night, but two seats together weren't available two weeks ahead of time for Saturday, and only obstructed views way, way up in the upperdeck. It was probably for the best though, since Monday the Twins came into town, and they've been streaking as of late. We sat in the "Pavillion," which is just past the bullpens in right field. We sat in section 144, row L, seats 16 & 17, just inside the foul pole.

Game Notes
Tigers: 9 Twins: 3

Tigers record: 76-36 (best in the majors by 10 games I believe)

Winning Pitcher- Zach Miner (a rookie): 7-2
Losing Pitcher- Francisco Liriano (a rookie): 12-3

Marcus Thames hit the longest home-run at Comerica Park this season (442 ft) to lead off the 4th inning.

We're hoping to get back to see the Tigers a couple more times after Japan. Hopefully tickets will still be available...

I'll post some pictures of the game later (maybe much later), since I have to unpack at school and get stuff done for this trip to Japan. Leaving tomorrow!! WOO!
