Tuesday night MLB recaps

Breaking news!! Big Papa is not available for tonight's recaps, so with his blessing, I'm going to take tonight's recaps.

K.C. Royals-4 Detroit Tigers - 3
KC won this game on a LONG home run by Ken Harvey off Danny Patterson. The Tigers thought they tied the game in the top of the 9th, when Alex Sanchez scored on a DP grounder to 2nd that Pudge Rodriguez beat out. The 2nd base ump, however, called automatic DP because of interference on Carlos Guillen, as he didn't slide to break up the throw.

In a shocking development, former Tiger, Juan Gonzalez didn't play.
