No Rally Mascots required... yet.  But it's a close one!

Tigers 4, Cubs 2 going into the seventh inning!  (We love it when the other team walks in a bases-loaded run!)

Marcus Thames nickname

One day sitting a Mud Hens game Marcus came up. I saw his initials were MT… The only word in the English language that ends in MT is “dreamt”…. I thought that if he was called up to the Tigers and became really good he could be call the “The Dream”…… Yea, it was a boring game if I recall
