Detroit is one win away from a World Series! Kenny Rogers pitched another fantastic game in October, going 7 1/3 innings and blanking the A's powerful lineup. After having miserable statistics in the post season for his career, Rogers seems to be intent on wiping those numbers off his record. Two straight fabulous October performances have made a believer out of me.
Detroit's offense did just enough to secure a 3-0 win and, more importantly, a 3-0 advantage in the series. Such an advantage has the A's up against insurmountable odds as only one team in history has recovered... the Boston Red Sox vs. the Yankees in 2004. For some strange reason, I don't see that happening this time around. The Tigers simply cannot lose.
Leyland has pulled all the right strings.. the starting pitching has been incredible.. the offense has provided power... a steady defense.. all resulting in 6 straight playoff wins.
