Great win tonight, the Tigers beat the Yankees 8-0. Mike Maroth didn't need much run support, but he got it anyway. The Tigers offense came alive in the second inning, with a triple by Carlos Guillen that scored a run, and a two-run homer by Eric Munson. The offense didn't stop there though, it continued on with five runs in the fifth inning. The Tigers offense was clearly in full gear, but the real story was the pitching performance of Maroth. Maroth pitched a complete game, giving up no runs and one hit. It was his first career shutout, and it couldn't have come at a better time for the Tigers. The Tigers lost to the Yankees yesterday, 5-1, but with the win tonight, and with the White Sox loss tonight, they are just 4.5 games back of the White Sox for first place in the central division.
Well, if you haven't been watching Jeopardy the past month or so, you are missing out on an amazing person. His name is Ken Jennings and he just won his 33rd consecutive show tonight. He has won over 1,000,000 dollars (I think he has a little over 1,100,000 at this point). I really don't see this guy losing, he is practically unbeatable. I mean, I haven't watched every single epiosode since he's been on because of work, but from what I have seen, no one is ever close to him. I hope he can keep it up, and I'm sure that is the hope of CBS, he is probably the biggest draw since the show "Fast Animals, Slow Children."

Well, that is all for tonight. I have my cousin's graduation party tomorrow and then I have to work Sunday-Tuesday, so I probably won't be updating again for a few days. I really want to start updating daily again, or at least every other day, but I don't know if that is possible. I still have to do a top ten for this month, so at least you'll have that to look forward to. So until next time, thank you and good night.
