Detroit —There’s the Tigers’ season in a nut shell.
Oh, except they won.
“We survived,” said one of those gritty survivors, Jordan Zimmermann. “We got the win.
“That’s the main thing.”
True, in a game that featured a lot of things you don’t often see — Brad Ausmus going all Billy Martin for one, J.D. Martinez going all Scotty Smalls, for another — the result was what mattered most.
And just like that, the Tigers have won two games in a row, following a hold-on-to-your-hats, 10-8 victory over the meek Minnesota Twins before a sparse but often-amused crowd at Comerica Park on Sunday night.
