Detroit's pitching staff is pretty solid at pitching and pretty terrible at everything else.

If the Tigers lose this series, as seems likely, they can blame it on 4 pitchers' fielding errors.

Some weak batting too, an error can easily be overcome by one swing of the bat. The Tigers have left WAY too many runners on base, sometimes loaded.

You'd think that someone who gets paid for throwing a baseball extremely accurately could throw a simple lob to first base, or third base, but apparently not.

The brilliance of Kenny Roger's performance in game two wasn't just his incredible control, but he also made several very crucial fielding plays.

The Tigs are toast, but hopefully they can at least bring it home for one game.

And a passball that should have been blocked, and a slippery outfield. It was not a pretty game on the Detroit side.
