Jack Morris, I believe. He pitched one amazing game in that series to help us win.. I'm not sure of the exact details, but he pitched a long game without giving up runs..

Don't tread on me..

Yep. One of the main reasons why the Tigers won it in 84. Those were the glory years for them. I believe they had the second most wins of that decade behind you know who. The jankees.

Hey wait a second. I thought the Tigers made it to the playoffs in '87?

No wait I'm mistaken. Jack Morris won game 7 in the '91 world series. He was one of the reasons we won the series. Kirby Puckett also had a huge part in both the '87 and '91 world series..

I remember Puckett. Class act there. That was a good group of guys they had at that time. I can almost remember your whole team!

Yeah. They may not have been famous outside of MN, but they didn't care. They just wanted to play baseball..

I just found out how the Cards won. I told you they had some kind of playoff magic going on. I really hope they lose next round.

Tigers win! Delmon Young brought in the winning run with a double in the 12th.

Thank God for that as I don't want to ever hear the name Valverde ever again! Jeter broke his ankle. Ouch that going to hurt them.

The line-up now is basically the Axis-of-Evil of baseball for me. My favorite teams are: The Reds and the Dodgers. My LEAST Favorite teams are: The Yankees (because their insane budget in a no-cap league allows them to buy whatever talent they want), The Cardinals (rivals of the Reds, but no real offense to them), and Giants (rivals of Dodgers, so ditto). Every team I've rooted for in the play offs have been eliminated: Rangers, Braves, Reds, Nationals--all gone to let way for my least favorite teams. So, who's left? Well, out of all these teams, I feel neutral about the Detroit Tigers. So, Go Tigers! =D

Totally agreed about the no cap. It just doesn't allow for quality competition. Still if a team like the A's can somehow win a division then there is still hope. Just look at Minnesota most years. GO TIGERS. Beat the EVIL EMPIRE!

I also agree about the no cap salary junk. It just allows teams like the Yankees to go to the playoffs year after year with no real competition. But there at least is still some competition. Like Tech said, my Twins are actually pretty decent most years (really good considering we're a small market team)!

I really want the Tigers to beat out the Yankees. Pretty much for the same reason as everyone else; too big of an evil empire for my baseball tastes. Then it will be a Tigers VS. Cardinals series.
