Rain Delayed Detroit Sweep

 It may be a tad dramatic to say, but I think game one of this series turned the season.  

Being shut out in another anemic offensive output, fans were down, social media was a blaze.  

Then one by one in the 9th:  Judge, Verdugo's drag bunt for a single, Stanton double, Rizzo base hit for the walk-off.  

Stadium was alive - and so was the team.  I think reinstalled a dose of confidence following the Baltimore series.  

On the pitching front, solid all the way around - and hello, Clay Holmes, 16 appearances, 0.00 ERA!  

Game 3 - Judge starts it off with a much needed homer.  Then of course, Soto, superman, a patient, smart, and aggressive at bat to clear the bases.  

Detroit is a good team, they will be contenders in the Central and for the Wild Card.  

This was a great 3 game bounce back.  

 

On Deck:  The Houston AstrosAre they really as bad as their record says there are?  

We shall see.
