The only sliver lining in today's Tigers/Twins debacle was the Tigers broke the AL record for most consecutive games throwing 10+ strikeouts. With four games against the Astros coming up, they could really put some distance away on that one. Going to Minute Maid tonight with my buddy from Michigan.
