al alburquerque

Detroit Tiger relief pitcher Al Alburquerque underwent surgery to repair a stress fracture in his pitching elbow yesterday in Pensacola, Florida. The procedure, performed by Dr. James Andrews, involved a screw being inserted to stabilize a non-displaced stress fracture in the elbow. Alburquerque is expected to recover fully, and if all goes according to plan should be back in the Tiger bullpen i

This was a close game.  A pitcher's duel.  It took 13 innings, but the outcome was still a bitter one for Tiger fans as Cleveland wins in walkoff fashion again, this time 3-2.
