Splitsville: Tigers Steal One of Two from Blue Jays, Twitter Asplodes with Happiness

Up until about 15 minutes ago, things weren’t looking too good for the Tigers today. They were down 4-2 going into the bottom of the 8th inning of the second game of their day-night doubleheader after losing the first game 5-3.

A few minutes later, RBI doubles from Miguel Cabrera and Ryan Raburn (yeah, seriously) gave the Tigers a 6-4 lead that turned into a 6-5 win. We weren’t the only confused ones.

Right after he hit the double, Raburn tried to press his luck by attempting to steal third. That part didn’t work out so well.

Austin Jackson continues to mash. I think he’s put himself back into the lead of the AL Rookie of the Year race.

And it looks like there’s at least one more person on the Tigers bandwagon after the win.
