Summary
Rico and Stoney (in for Valenti) start this short show by breaking down the Tigers' 5-4 win over the Athletics to advance to an impressive 6-1 to start the season. They discuss the biggest surprises thus far along with the biggest catalysts to Detroit's hot start. They take some calls and read a few ticket texts on the topics before shifting to an interesting conversation about 2 big sports days in the city each year to begin the second hour. Roberto joins for "Who Said It?" and then Riger and Marc Ryan chime in from LCA where the Red Wings will face the Rangers tonight.
