My real #DetroitTiger, Birby died today at age 22.5 - naturally, at home, in my arms. He saw such a huge chunk of our lives. No words can express my gratitude to this Kitty King.

The first #DetroitTiger pitcher to have 7+ scoreless innings in a start within his first two starts since 2002 🔥

Ended 14 year protest & am at #DetroitTiger game with family. Still pissed about old stadium destruction.
