| August 6, 1969 The Detroit Tigers are in 2nd place in the AL East, 2 games behind the Baltimore Orioles. The Tigers are getting nice offensive seasons from Jim Northrup, Willie Horton and Norm Cash. Tommy Matchick has been a pleasant surprise at the plate. He's filled in well at 2nd base since Dick McAuliffe went down with a season ending knee injury in July. Matchick has fielded the postion well, as expected, and has hit much better than most thought he would. The Tigers are getting excellent seasons from starters Mickey Lolich and Denny McLain while Don McMahon has been virtually untouchable coming out of the bullpen. The Tigers hope to continue to keep the Orioles in their crosshairs, waiting for them to falter. |
