Great pitching and 2 grand slams!!

Tonight’s game turned into a long one with the rain delays and the amount of hitting the tigers did. Edwin Jackson had a great game and was clearly on top of his stuff by only allowing one run and had six strike outs in seven innings. Jackson had a great fast ball and good slider going for him and the rain delays didn't slow him down at all. Edwin has really been a breath of fresh air to Detroit because whenever he goes out it seems like you really don't have to worry if he’s going to get the job done. Another good thing was he finally got the run support that he hasn't been getting all season along.

Now lets talk about the bats. The tigers had two grand slams tonight, the first one was Ryan Raburn in the first inning which gave the tigers a 5 to 0 lead. The tigers didn't stop there with all the bats seeming to find the ball well and after the late rain delay was over, Brandon Inge Hit a the second grand slam of the game to center field. It was a great feeling to see everything going right and not having to rely on just pitching to win the game.

Final- A's 1 Detroit 14

Go Tigers
