Here is another stat. Not including last night (I haven't checked that one yet) Cabrera was walked five times in the previous four games. Every time he walked the next guy up, Prince Fielder, drove in a run.
I was marveling at how potent this offense is, and the fact that it is not really even jelling yet. Jackson is on the DL and Leyland has had to juggle his lineup around that fact. Victor Martinez has yet to find his stroke. Alex Avila is way below the Mendoza line. Just wait.
Get Jackson back in the lead off position, Martinez swinging the bat and Avila back to where he should be and they’ll be scary. It helps that guys like Don Kelly are producing.
Always...a Tiger.
