The Tigers were down 6-0 in the bottom of the 9th to the White Socks. Detroit would go on to score 6 in the ninth and win the game 7-6 in 12. I would sure hate to be those who left that game early! AND THE CROWD GOES NUTS!!!! 
Unreal!

It has been 66 years since a Detroit Tigers team came back from 6 runs down i the ninth inning to win a game. It was a treat to listen to .
"That was unbelievable," said Don Kelly, who scored the winning run in the 12th on Omar Infante's infield single. "I can't remember anything six runs down, obviously. We've had some comebacks, but to be able to put up six and win it in extras, that was fun."
In fact, unless they were at Briggs Stadium to watch Vic Wertz, George Kell and Hoot Evers beat up on the Washington Senators on Aug. 22, 1947, nobody had seen it.
No Tigers team in 66 years had come back from a six-run deficit in the ninth inning to win a game. This year's team erased a three-run gap in the ninth last month against Oakland, capped by a three-run walkoff homer from Hunter, but that was a warmup compared to this."

Tigers play again today too, back to reality!
I wonder who they are playing? LOL!! OH YEAH, the White Socks again! The Tigers "magic number" is down to two. I doubt the Socks can catch them.
It might not be a Super Bowl, but the Lions have won in Washington for the first time ever. Yahoooo!
Yeah, but the Tigers could not pull off a second last inning come back. Magic number still at two.
No worries here. Tigers will be ok.
Just stating the facts, not worried. If they continue to win two out of every 3 games played it's a done deal.
The Lions score was 27-20 over the Redskins.
Tigers have 6 games remaining, all away games. 3 with MN and 3 with Miami.
On any given Sunday....................................
If they are playing, I would say that the will either win or lose.
No, I spoke the truth, not Obama. It is a fact. IF the Lions are playing, I don't know I have not looked at the schedule, regardless of who they may be playing, they will, without a doubt, win or lose. It will be, again without a doubt, "Any given Sunday".
Don't have a chain, other than on my boat anchor. I am ALWAYS sitting when on this forum. Can't run a keyboard while standing. Why would you want to yank my anchor chain? What is a "Da Bear"?
If Bush plays it will be interesting, if not, it won't.
