WS Games 3 and 4: Missed Opportunities

What a crazy, busy weekend for the Tigers and the Tigress.  Game 3 was definitely characterized by missed opportunities, no more so than when the bases were loaded with only one out and no runs were scored.  In general, the bats were cold the first three games.  I wouldn't even say that the Giants' pitching was as stellar as the Tigers, just that the Tigers were on a cold streak.

Game 4 was do or die.  To be honest, I felt a lot of pressure.  Many people put their hopes on MY shoulders to cheer the Tigers to a victory.  I will say it was actually a close game, SchEYEzer was outstanding, and the wind helped to blow Miggy's hit out of the park.  In the end, the Giants were just the better team.

The Tigers had a great season.  American League Central Champions, American League Champions, a Triple Crown, and probably the Most Valuable Player of the American League.  That's not too shabby.  Sure, I wish the Tigers would have given the Giants more of a run for their money in the World Series, but that's not the way things shook out this year.

There's lots more analysis to come, but to be honest, I'm just too tired right now.  162 games plus 5 games in the ALDS, 4 games in the ALCS, and 4 games in the WS.  But as Sister Tigress says, "April is just 5 short months away."
