After winning six straight, including a sweep at Tokyo Dome against the Giants, it looked as though the Tigers were turning the corner on their season. Alas, as tends to be the case, the series after facing the Giants was a stinker. Golden Week was anything but golden as kids at Koshien were treated to a couple of shutouts. Then at Vantelin Dome Nagoya, easily the worst ballpark for our Tigers, they scored one run in the first two games combined before staging a comeback win and salvaging the series (somewhat). Still, until the team is single-digits below .500 (or better), the recaps will be limited to once per week. The exception will be if they are in a crucial series and win the first game or two… then I might ramp up production again. As it stands, we are still a distant last place. Step it up next week, Tigers!!!
