Tonight the Twins and Tigers kick-off a four game series in Detroit that will most likely decide the AL Central.  With neither team in wild card contention, the stakes are high.  The good people of motown gotta feel good about this one being a home series.  Tomorrow night, they'll feel even better if Justin Verlander has an outing like June 12th, 2007.  BSG is here to help your remember it.
