Motor City Bengals Podcast

Motor City Bengals presents "Tiger Talk" with hosts Matt Pelc and Dave Holcomb. On this week's show, we celebrate one of the greatest days of the year: Opening Day. The Detroit Tigers began the season with a bang, earning a complete, 4-0, team victory over the Minnesota Twins at Comerica Park. Ace starting pitcher David Price was the star, pitching 8 2/3 innings of shutout ball, allowing only five hits. He also struck out five and walked none. Unfortunately, Price wasn't able to record that 27th and final out, but closer Joe Nathan was able to, striking out the lone batter he faced.Left fielder Yoenis Cespedes starred in the field and at the plate in his Tigers regular season debut. Cespedes was 2-for-4 with two runs scored and robbed a home run off the bat of Kurt Suzuki in the third inning, but Pelc argues it was a base running play from Cespedes that turned out to be most important on Opening Day.In the second segment, the show welcomes its first ever guest in Motor City Bengals staff writer Josh Scramlin.
