For Father's Day, Kevin, Craig and I took Dad to a Detroit Tiger's game over Labor Day Weekend. The Tigers are playing great this year and recently won their division and are off to the playoffs.
The day was hot, 94 degrees, but we were able to have Dad sit in the shade. The Tigers were down 8-4 in the 8th inning when a huge rain and lighting storm came in. We held out for about 1/2 hour but then decided to head home. As we were leaving we listened to the game on the radio. Of course when the game resumed the Tigers hit two home runs in the 9th inning and won the game in dramatic fashion. Another highlight was sitting behind Tiger pitching ace Justin Verlander (see photo).
Despite missing the exciting ending, we had a great time. Dad has been a lifelong Tiger fan and it is fun to share his excitement.
