Game 163

Twins and Tigers were not able to take the title in 162 games so they had to play one more game. And what a game it was, nine innings still did not determine who would face the Yankees. Scott Baker took the mound for the Twins, and did a good job. He made one really bad pitch to Cabrera for a two-run homerun in the third inning. Tiger lead 3-0, the crowd was a bit quiet. The Twins got a run back, but the rally ended. Baker then set them down one after another. In the sixth inning Jason Kubel knocked a solo homerun. Tigers lead 3-2.

Injuries and playing time have been played out well between these four, I really don't feel that I have started the wrong guy or did not have enough guys available to play. WR: Marquez Colston, Wes Welker, Calvin Johnson and Anquin Boldin. Again not too back, Welker was a nice surprise and did burn me a few weeks when he was not the guy of the week, but I think I knew that was a possibility for this team. Only when one of the others on my bench out performed the others. TE Dallas Clark IND, Great pick, the tenth TE picked in this league and a top five performer. K Jason Elam and Matt Stover, both should have been solid picks, I messed these guys up more then I got them right, Starting the one that got just one extra point while the other...
