Progressive Field, Cleveland, Ohio: The Tigers scored two runs in the 12th inning and held off the Indians, who scored 1 run in the bottom of the 12th inning to win the game. This is why I love baseball. The Tigers led 2 to 1 going into the bottom of the 9th inning when the Indians tied the game, sending us into "free baseball". Three innings later the Tigers take what seems like a "safe" two run lead into the bottom of th
e 12th, only to see the Indians score one before the Tigers sealed the win with the final out. The night began when the Cleveland Indians inducted Sandy Alomar, Jr. into the Indians Hall of Fame. The excitement of honoring one of Cleveland's best catchers and most popular players was overshadowed by a baseball fan's most hope for event: an exciting, close game.
