Oooh. A win AND a decent outing from Verlander.

And on the same day, too. I'll be damned.

^^ He went 9, went out with 2 on, then bullpen gave up 4 runs it's okay though we had 12 runs..

^Lets not get ahead of ourselves. The M's suck.

But yeah, good to see some life out of the guys. As disappointing a season as this has been thus far, we are *only* 7 games under and nobody is really running away with the division.

Theres still room for theoretical hope, even if the pitching issues aren't just going to go away themselves.

The real good thing about this series is not just the offense but that we also pitched good at the SAME time...something has just not happened, it's been hot offense cold defense, cold defense, hot offense, it was all together in this series.
