Damn it Minor

2-2 bottom of the 9th and we have Zach Minor in and lose, why the hell is he in in the 9th of a tied game? To make it worse the White Sox won last night so we lost a game in our lead as well. It is going to come down to the wire for the Central, since we do play them 6 of our last ten games. Now as much as I don't like Minor and want to blame him, or Leyland for putting him in, really there are a lot of things that happened that lead to the Tigers loosing. It started in the 1st with a lead off double and Poly getting Granderson to 3rd with a single, so we had runners on 1st and 3rd with no outs and 3, 4, 5 in the order coming up, and we could only get one run on a rbi ground out. That hurt, just one big hit away from having a real big innings, instead we get one. Galarraga pitched well, but we need to score more then 1 or 2 runs a game to win, that is all there is to it. But for the record, I still don't like Minor and would not put him in a tied game in the 9th. I'm right, you're wrong
