Tigers

On a beautiful Saturday morning, the Tigers came out ready and focused and addressed the problems that plagued them in their previous game. Having accomplished what they needed to in the pre-game, the Tigers came out swinging and looked phenomenal. Four different pitchers appeared in the winning effort including Grant Kopps and Erik VanWinkle, who both have ERA's under 2.00. Michael Plaisance and Dexter Taylor also had very strong outings on the hill as the Tigers' pitchers struck out 13 of the Blue Jays they faced. Surprisingly strong hitting was also present in the game as the Tigers pounded out 8 hits for 9 runs. Kenneth Hou added 2 more RBI's in the game to bring his team-leading total to 6 and Rory D'Alleva, Michael Plaisance, and Sebastian Velasquez continue to hit over .300 at a .333 clip. Michael Moler also swung the bat strongly as he has the past few games, bringing the Tigers some much needed pop while reaching base 2 times out of 3 plate appearances on Saturday. Daniel Walters joins Erik VanWinkle as being the only players on the team to have only struck out once this season, and Nicholas Liu rounded out the strong offensive effort by reaching base 3 times out of 4 plate appearances and scoring a run to bring his team-leading total of runs scored to 4. The Tigers look strong all around and have their eyes set on Wednesday's game against the White Sox.
