Tigers Down, Not Out »
April 8, 2008
The loss yesterday dropped the Tigers to 0-7.
Detroit is the only winless team in the majors. That's a surprise because the Tigers have been the preseason pick in many quarters to not only win the American League Central division, but to capture the World Series as well.
The Red Sox, though, still have a great deal of respect for Detroit's team.
"Anything can happen in April," said the Sox' David Ortiz with a shrug. "It's hard to believe (the Tigers are 0-7), but this team will win games this year and then it's on, baby."
"I would have never guessed that they would start that way," said Boston third baseman Mike Lowell. "I don't think the experts were wrong to pick them as a capable team. That's still a good team. You can't take them lightly at all. They're just not clicking. Hopefully they won't click for another two games."
