Today turned out to include many surprises. We were under the impression my sister and cousin weren't going to get to our house (and into Michigan, at that) until late tonight or early tomorrow. Well, you could say they arrived a little but earlier than that. Like, around 4:30 pm. Apparently they decided on driving straight through the night instead of spending extra money on a hotel room for 6 hours. So in they pulled, with a car full of clothes and books and...clothes. Lots of clothes. I suppose if you're going to be staying at home for 3 months, you'd want to bring a wardrobe...or 27. Haha.
In another great turn of events, Max Scherzer, who the Tigers called up again from AAA, had his first start back this afternoon and proceeded to strikes out a career high 14 batters in 5.2 innings! For the 17 men he faced, 14 of them fanned! That's unheard of! Of only he was a little more economical with his pitch count, he probably could have made it into the 8th or 9th...possibly knocking on the 20+K mark. Again...unheard of! Glad to see he fixed his mechanics when in his 2 minor league starts. Let's hope he keeps it up!
Papermill,
