HOUSTON – Well, who saw this coming?
After a miserable season-opening series in Tampa, the Detroit Tigers just went deep into the heart of Texas and did the unthinkable. They beat the defending World Series champions Houston Astros in back-to-back games, earning a 6-3 victory on Tuesday night.
And that tune echoing through Minute Made Park took on a different sound:
"The stars at nightAre big and brightDeep in the heart of Texas"
Suddenly, in an absolute stunning development (at least for two games), those stars were Tigers.
Big and bright.
