The Tigers needed it to rain hits as they put up very little offense against Zack Greinke’s superb outing giving the Royals game two of the set 6-1. Greinke gave up only 1 run on 6 hits and fanned 8 batters in throwing his 5th complete game of the season.
It came down in buckets last night in Chicago. The game was barely official but made it to the top of the 6th which was enough to give the Cubs their first win in 9 games over the Pirates 6-1. Losing pitcher Ian Snell is trying not to over think the loss.
Sean Marshall grabbed the win after 5 solid innings. It’s an afternoon game with Pittsburg today at 2:20.
The NBA playoffs are taking some interesting turns. At one time it looked like it would take magic to stop the Cavaliers when that’s exactly what happened. Orlando took it to overtime and crawled out with a 116-114 win. Lebron James scored 44 including the ones that sent the game to OT. Cleveland coach Mike Brown knows there’s really only one thing to do now.
Hopefully a shift back home tomorrow night will keep the Cavs alive.
The Red Wings will have their work cut out if they finish off Chicago tonight. Part of the championship match up was decided last night in Raleigh as the Pittsburgh Penguins head back to familiar territory with a 4-1 win and a 4 game sweep of Carolina. Pens center Sidney Crosby says this road was not a smooth one.
A hopeful sign for the upcoming Michigan football season – sophomore center David Molk has been named to the named to the 2009 Rimington Trophy Spring Watch List, as announced by the award's selection committee.

The Red Wings with an opportunity to close out the Blackhawks in the Western Conference Finals tonight in Hockeytown – but they may have to do it without Niklas Lidstrom and Pavel Datsyuk – they will both be gameday decisions. If Lidstrom is unable to play, it will be only the second playoff game he misses in his 16 seasons – Game 4 of this series was his first scratch. The Red Wings and their 3-1 series lead take on the Blackhawks for Game 5 tonight at 7:10 on 1660 The Fan.
