But hey, we’re better than the Royals!

The Tigers returned home to a large, loud cheering section, the newspapers report. I caught an inning during a lightning delay of a high school game, and I was quite impressed that you could hear Sean Casey’s home run before Jim or Dan could make the home run call.
Detroit had to rally back from a 4-0 deficit as a team finally figured out Jair Jurrjens. But with Casey’s homer in the fifth and Brandon Inge’s two-out single in the sixth, the Tigers came up with the victory. That allowd Todd Jones to earn his 38th save of the season.
Milestone game — sorta. I never know if it’s the “tie” or the “pass” that’s really the milestone – as Pudge Rodriguez caught his 2,056th game, tying Gary Carter for third on the all-time list. Pudge is on track to pass Carlton Fisk in 2009. Oh, and Pudge doubled.
