Well, let's see...the Tigers just shut out the White Sox, 5-0. They get their 11th in a row, and Verlander gets his 23rd win (also his 11th in a row). And the Phillies? It seems they lost to the worst team in baseball. Again. That's their third loss in a row.
So if the Tigers meet up in the Series with the Phillies, I'll take that bet.

Originally posted by shortcircuitI thought it was interesting that the Tigers have won their 11th in a row and that Verlander has won his 11th consecutive start, while they're wearing a patch on their sleeves with the number '11' to commemorate Sparky Anderson. I hope it doesn't mean that's the end of each streak.
you got it

The jinx of all jinxes.... the famed 11/11/11 jinx.
Now the streak will end, Verlander's arm will fall off and Sparky Anderson will remain dead.
See? It has already started....Sparky is still dead!!!! 😉😛

Penny for your thoughts Sparky!!! 😉😛
Home runs by Raburn and Avila. Tigers win in 10 innings.

Then you will want to double me up.
The race is a marathon, not a sprint. Remember I said that.

Even a team of destiny can't win 'em all. That was our longest winning streak since 1934.
I am sorry that those two things do not make championships however.
Don't bet your house on the Tigers to win it all.
For your sake, I hope they do, but the smart money says otherwise.
