DETROIT -- Ask Placido Polanco which moment stands out from the Tigers' 2006 American League championship season, and the answer is pretty predictable.
"Obviously, I'll never forget Magglio hitting that home run," Polanco said Friday, a day before he threw out the first pitch before the Tigers' game against the Indians at Comerica Park. "I was begging for a hit. He hit a home run. I didn't know how to run the bases. I just started jumping. It was fun. I'll always remember that. It was really good times. It's been 10 years now. Time flies.
