Damn, am I glad I let myself get talked into skipping Psych for this game. (I was actually considering going for about ten minutes before I left the bar last night, but the Yankee fan next to me was like, "Dude. 1987. Come on.") I would have cried if I'd missed this one to sit through one of the worst classes I've ever taken.

I had an interesting time finding a place to watch it, though. Apparently there's only like one sports bar in town that opens before four. I spent the first hour in some random place where I met up, also randomly, with an old friend from middle school, then I migrated down the street to a sports bar called Rivalries.

Where I was the only Tigers fan amidst Yankee fans. It was odd. I'm accustomed to Yankee fans being the minority around here, but then I'm usually out watching Red Sox games.

What a game. Love to Justin for getting himself out of trouble so many times. Love to Carlos for that homer. Love to Grandy for putting us ahead. Love to Thames for making with the hits. Even love to Jonesy for getting through the ninth, though he did it with so much drama I thought I was going to throw up. And for once, that is not hyperbole. I think probably the subpar nachos didn't help.

To Comerica with the split! 4-3 Tigers, series tied at one! GO TIGERS! ♥

And I am totally skipping my 12pm class so that I can be prepared for the game at 8pm. :P

That was indeed a sweet game. (And suddenly I hear the Tommy LaSorda Red Sox commercial behind me... no kidding.) I heartmark Zumaya a lot. Mmm, pitching.

As long as we're making requests, I would be much obliged if the A's could get the sweep tomorrow, if you would be so kind.

My dad called me after the game to announce his newfound Tigers fandom (he's a Red Sox fan, so of course right now he is also a Tigers fan). I bragged a little about Zoom's fastball, and Dad couldn't stop gushing over it. It was awesome.

Oh, and I thought of your icon while I was watching the game. *g*

It's such a great fastball!

Thanks! I'm flattered. *hugs*
