THROWBACK THURSDAY — CMO in the Spotlight

THROWBACK THURSDAY

On Thursdays I like to throw it back. Sometimes, it's five years, sometimes 10. I looked back at some stuff from August 2006 and found that Tigers announcer Craig Monroe had quite a month as a player that season. So, without further adieu …

AUGUST 04, 2006

C-Mo Comes Up Huge Tonight

In the bottom of the eighth inning Craig Monroe crashed a long drive to deep left field ... and I've never seen a ball hook like this one and it went foul. However, on the next pitch, Craig drilled a 379 foot ball over the left-field fence for a home run that gave the Tigers a 7-6 lead. They had trailed all night, including being down 5-0 at one point.

Brandon Inge just dove to knock down a ball with a runner on base to save the save for Todd Jones!!!

Mr. Leyland is pretty adamant about that nine inning stuff!!!

Yeah, eat 'em up, Tigers ... Eat 'em up!!!
