Cameras get the dirt on Rogers’ hand
Detroit - In the first inning of Game 2, St. Louis manager Tony LaRussa spotted some crud on Tigers P Kenny Rogers’ hand, and alerted the umpires, thinking Rogers may be using it to cheat. “It wasn’t dirt, it was actually some dog poo from when I was playing with my golden retriever, Sparky. I would never intentionally use dog poo to cheat,” Rogers responded. It appears no further action or suspension will take place.

Detroit - Actually, it was just Bob Seger, some American Idol chick, and a few old Detroit Tigers players. That’s about as celebrified as Detroit gets. Not many superstars like to hobnob around tire fires.
Detroit - After writing over 500 pages in a draft copy of his legacy, Detroit P Kenny Rogers says he’s “putting it in the shredder” and starting over on the story of his baseball career. “I wrote every day last winter, but I used third person, and I don’t like it. I’m re-doing the whole thing first person,” the pitcher/writer said.
