9th win in last 10 games. Homers by Beer, Williams and Byrd give the Tigers 71 on the season. 2nd in Power Five behind only #4 Arkansas. Williams has 14, Beer 13--one of just 3 duos in nation with over 25 combined. Monte said he wasn't sure what the status of the pen would be tomorrow, but I would guess Spiers will be available after throwing just 25 pitches today. Strider only threw 37. Closer Gilliam will not be available after throwing 92 pitches in the 13-inning loss on Friday. Also, I noticed before the game that Teo's throwing arm was in a sling, and he apparently injured it in practice this week. From the sound of it, he will be out the rest of the season. That hurts the outfield defensively, but hopefully Meredith will be back soon to give them more options offensively!

I'll have interviews posted shortly!
