Alright, this is getting old.  Dontrelle Willis had about as bizarre of a start as I could remember.  He took a no-hitter into the sixth inning but he walked seven and after giving up two runs, Zach Miner was the latest reliever to implode and a 3-0 lead turned into a 4-3 deficit in a hurry.

Chris Shelton, I mean Clete Thomas, continues to rake and he went two for five.  Four career games and he has a four game hitting streak.  Brandon Inge was the guy who put the team on his back though.  He went two for three with a walk, a double, a homer and he drove in all three runs for the Tigers.  Jacque Jones was two for three with a walk and two runs.

The Tigers try to avoid their second straight sweep tomorrow afternoon.  Justin Verlander gets another chance and it’ll be a once Tiger killer, Mark Buehrle, throwing for the White Sox.

I’m really digging Mosaic for MLB.TV.  There’s only four games on right now, but it’s neat to be able to flip around between games.
