The first player in modern Major League history to hit a pinch-hit home run in his team's first two regular-season games is an American Leaguer. He isn't a pinch-hitting specialist, either."I'm going to be honest with you, I don't like pinch-hitting," Victor Martinez said after his second pinch-hit home run in as many days helped the Tigers to a 7-3 win over the Marlins on Wednesday. "I just don't like it."

Martinez had a game plan when he went up to bat, but the ovation from the fans made him change his approach.“I was just like ‘You know what, forget this — see ball, hit ball.’ Look for the ball, and just be ready to hit,” he said. “I saw it nice and slow and just said, ‘This is it.’ I knew — I don’t know.”

DETROIT -- It was a curious time for a bunt, with two men out and the bases loaded in the third inning.When Detroit Tigers shortstop Andrew Romine laid the ball down in front of the plate, pitcher Peter Moylan quickly flipped it to the catcher for a force-out at home.Was Romine instructed to bunt? Did someone miss a signal? No and no, said manager Brad Ausmus."He just did that on his own," Ausmus said.Why, particularly in that situation?"You'd have to ask him," Ausmus said. "I can't say what he was thinking."Romine chose not to say, either, declining to talk to media after the game.

And you...bunted it straight to the pitcher.

Ha, right -- which sent St. Louis to Detroit and started what is now ELEVEN years of unfinished business.
Figured this team was good for 86-88 wins and a shot at the wild card. Given all the injuries, I'd say they overachieved.
Sorta too bad they won't play game 162 against Cleveland. Fulmer was due to start. Had he thrown 3.1 scoreless innings, he would have qualified and squeaked by Sanchez for the ERA title at 2.99.
Looks Verlander led the AL in Ks and WHIP. Wasn't expecting that.

Ausmus and the Tigers seem really thrilled with one another.

Before Friday night’s game in Atlanta, Ausmus was asked about Braves interim manager Brian Snitker. He joked: “I’ve been an interim manager for three years.”
