Good!
And the Tigers are leading 3-1 in the sixth.

| After this game we still have 2 more against KC. Perhaps we can help you out a bit. |

If the Sox can hold off the Royals and the Tigers prevail other the Tribe tonight, Tigers will gain first place by half a game. (Yeah, half a game doesn't mean much, but it could end up being something to build on. We'll see how this race turns out.)

| Uh-oh. 2 run home-run for Eric Hosmer. The lead has been cut to 3-2. |

| Allen Webster, a rookie auditioning for a spot in next year's rotation. He has good stuff but REALLY lacks command. |

Saw him pitch once last year when a Red Sox-Tigers game was being nationally televised. His stuff seems to look as if it can be electric, but then there are the command issues that get in the way.

| He really seems to struggle with adjustments. Its like the 2nd time around he just completely falls apart. I highly doubt he'll begin next season in the starting rotation unless he makes vast off-field improvements. |

Maybe it'll just take some time for him. Take Carlos Carrasco of the Indians, for instance. For the first few years, he was destined to be a starter but never really made it as a starter at first. He made some starts earlier this year, didn't do that well, and was then inserted into the bullpen, where he thrived for a period of time. After doing pretty well out of the bullpen, he was given another shot in the starting rotation. And since then, he's been doing quite well as a starter.
