“Chappy we don’t stink right now”

Gus Sinski walked to the mound and uttered these words to Billy Chappell as he spun a no-hitter for the last-place Detroit Tigers in the movie “For the Love of the Game”.

What a difference 3 weeks makes. The Detroit Tigers are currently 9-7 with a positive run differential in the month of May..damn..who knew all that sucking was essentially nothing more than fertilizer for Al Avila “May” flowers.
