We Won.....but we might just have a problem

Armando Galarraga for whatever reason, has been absolutely awful in his last 4 starts, and that is not good considering I thought he was going to be good for 15 wins. Teams are pounding him, knocking him all around Comerica Park.

Today he didn't make it an inning. 2 outs, 5 runs, 4 hits and 3 walks later he was on the bench. Thank goodness for some offense and some great bullpen work, Zach Miner was a stud today.

The Tigers fell behind 6-0 and it looked very bad.

In the 3rd inning though with 2 outs the Tigers rallied for 4 runs behind triples by Josh Anderson and Ramon Santiago. Two innings later Santiago would hit a 3-run job giving the Tigers their first lead.

From that point on the Tigers would control the game versus the struggling A's team. CG would add his 10th HR of the season, and the bullpen would shut down Oakland.

Tigers prevail, and sweep the weekend series 3 games to none.

Tigers 11 A's 7
