1991 AL Game of Note: Det @ Oak.

June 12, 1991

 It was a wild game in Oakland tonight. For fans of high scoring games, this one had it all. 14 hits for each team, 4 lead changes, and 3 homeruns in the 9th inning by Detroit to pull out a 13-9 victory over the A's. Oakland went ahead early in the game but the Tigers battled back to take an 8-6 lead going into the bottom of the 8th. Then the A's got to relief ace Mike Henneman for 3 runs to go ahead 9-8 heading into the 9th. With Oakland relief ace Dennis Eckersley on the mound in the 9th, Detroit hit back to back to back homeruns off him. First, with 2 men on and no outs, Mickey Tettleton hit a 3-run homer to give Detroit the lead 11-9. Rob Deer followed that with a solo blast and Dave Bergman followed with a solo blast of his own to complete the trifecta. Detroit hit a total of 6 homeruns in the game.

Third baseman Travis Fryman connected with a 'big fly' and had 3 RBI as the
Detroit Tigers won in dramatic fashion over the Oakland A's by a score of 13
to 9 at Oakland Coliseum.
 
Detroit won the game with a rally in the top of the 9th inning when they came
up with 5 runs on 4 hits.  The key offensive moment was provided by Mickey
Tettleton who quieted the crowd when he lofted a three-run bomb.  Both teams
finished the game with 14 hits.  
 
Mike Henneman(4-3) picked up the victory, allowing 2 runs in 2 innings. Dennis
Eckersley(3-2) was hit with the loss in relief.  He served up 3 gopher balls
in 1 inning.  
 
'I pin this one on my own shoulders,' Eckersley said. 'The bottom line is I
didn't get the job done.  Our fans deserve better than this.'

1991 NL Player of Note: Jose Rio

June 10, 1991

In a well pitched game by both teams the Cincinnati Reds defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 2-0. Cincinnati's Jose Rio improved his record to a MLB best 9-0 with the win. The Phillie's Andy Ashbuy was a hard luck loser, allowing only 1 hit in 7 innings.

Fred McGriff launched 3 homeruns and had 6 RBI as the San Diego Padres beat
the Pittsburgh Pirates by a score of 20 to 11.
 
McGriff propelled San Diego to victory.  He lifted one out of the park for a
two run home run in the 1st inning, popped a two-run clout over the fence in
the 3rd inning and cleared the fences for a two-run home run in the 6th
inning.  San Diego bats were very productive in the 6th inning when they had
12 runs on 11 hits.  Overall San Diego out-hit Pittsburgh 21 to 16.  
 
Rich Rodriguez(3-3) was the winner allowing no runs in 1 inning. John Costello
earned his 1st save.  Bob Walk(4-1) suffered the loss.  He allowed 3 homeruns
in 5 and 1/3 innings of work.  
 
'I didn't feel that good when I came to the park tonight,' McGriff said.  'I'm
glad I decided to play!'
