As a new kid on the blog, I offer my  experience as an avid Tiger fan….Although I was born in the Bronx….I have been a Tiger fan since 1961! The tigers won 101 games that year and finished second to the yankees. Norn Cash batted .361, Al Kaline and Rocky Colavito also pounded the raw-hide…Frank Lary, “the Yankee Killer” and Jim Bunning (who is now a senator from Kentucky) tore up the mound in  Old Tiger stadium.

 But now a new year is upon us! Spring training is in full swing! It was a great day for baseball in Lakeland, a few white  puffy clouds in a Steel blue sky, temps in 70’s, green grass, freshly cut, and the Tigers beat  the Braves, the highpoint of the day….Adam Everett And Gerald Laird  hits were a bright spots for the  Tigers..Hello, my name is Joe and I will be Blogging with you this year!
