The Detroit Lions don't just need to clean up their defense ... they need to tear it down. Good luck with that right now.

Another one on McGonigle: Kevin McGonigle is one of only two rookies in baseball history with at least 94 runs, 26 doubles, 17 home runs, 65 RBI and 92 walk. The other? Ted Williams (1939).

How good is McGonigle? A stat from Tigers PR Peter Chase: Kevin McGonigle last night reached base safely for the 252nd time this season, just the fifth rookie to reach that mark this century: Judge, Ichiro, Pujols and Trout. All Rookies of Year
