Detroit Tigers Embarrassed by Washington Nationals Minor Leaguers

While the Detroit Tigers who faced the Blue Jays fared well, the game against the Nats was a serious embarrassment.

This would normally not be that big of a deal, but the Nats squad was loaded with minor league players and the Tigers squad was full major leaguers.

And, the ones with the words “All-Star” in their histories.

Who Stunk it Up?

Unfortunately, that team, with six All-Stars on the starting roster, could not get a run scored against a team full of unknowns (except for Adam Lind). This should never happen in the regular season and it also shouldn’t happen in an exhibition game.
