Tigers show heart in a 9th inning rally at Oakland for the W!

The Tigers entered the 9th inning yesterday down 3-1. Starter Jeremy Bonderman gave up all three A's runs in the first and looked great the rest of the way. However in the 9th, led by a veteran poised Brandon Inge who was able to take the A's pitcher to a 15 pitch walk. Fighting fatigue the A's pitcher walked Granderson and the Tigers held on for the W.  They are now an impressive 9-7 and are only 73 wins from my pre-season prediction of 82.
