all right Coco when or lose it is still
a party no doubt about it but let's face
it it's better to win Steve Gary's GL is
live outside Comerica Park he spent the
day with the fans yes but of course we
do have to talk baseball first so let's
go send it over to Bernie is live along
the third-base line hello there Bernie
lovely orange dress thank you very nice
very much into the tiger spirit and
forty two thousand six hundred and forty
one that's the announced crowd very
generous by the way I saw the Tigers
were in the home opener they beat the
world's five-to-four Tigers 5 and 3 on
the season right now we've got
highlights we will begin in the Tigers v
2 on nico Goodrem bloops a double here
to right Josh Harris ken is going to
score tied the game at three three
Tigers seventh world walk four straight
then Christian Stewart with a sac fly
Nick Castellanos is going to score ahead
of this Tigers go on to win at five to
four after the game Ron Gardenhire sound
like a happy manager made some plays I
think we missed one ball today Bob a
lewd one but other than that we made
some plays that we're supposed to make
and a nice ballgame it was I think
probably well played on both sides not a
lot of offense which seems to be the way
it is right now this type of weather so
we'll just keep plugging away I'm happy
with the way everything went especially
Turnbull threw the ball for us and then
our bullpen came in did a nice job
he's talking about Spencer Turnbull his
starter who struck out ten today a nice
performance by him in the opener and of
course it wouldn't be opening day it
really wouldn't for the fans
unless Steve Garagiola was outside the
stadium spending part of the day with
them and that's where we find Steve
right now you survived again
congratulations
barri I love it out here I am among the
many thousands of fans who didn't see
again even one inning of this ballgame
because we were out here all day it was
a big party from start to finish and a
lot of the folks who didn't go in said
he wouldn't have it any other way
Tiger opening day is a special kind of
party
it's so much fun outside that many
people don't bother with tickets
probably going to the game
we are not no sir oh no sir we're not
what are we doing here for the pregame
festivities we found plenty of folks
with tickets reluctant to leave the
party out here it's 2 o'clock the game
started on one o'clock why are you out
here showing me your tickets game game
it's the third inning why are you not in
the game because sometimes you have to
you have to intermingle with the the
group and you have to you know
understand what's going on you know
they're in the third evening right yeah
I know this fella has a streak of 40
straight Tiger openers but he's got a
host the tailgate how many innings do
you have to see for it to be official at
one pitch you know I think these folks
are right let them have their fun inside
the stadium it's plenty of fun out here
it's the first day of spring it's my
birthday and boy won't be anywhere else
Detroit Rock City baby you're having a
good
[Applause]
happy birthday man you know it amazes me
every year if you're the season opening
tickets for hockey or basketball or
football you go to the game baseball
people just don't mind have tickets or
not they just want to be part of this
celebration of spring it's pretty cool
dirt doesn't care about the first day of
spring is he told fun yeah I like that
but Steve any any word on this power
outage that they've had around the
stadium I think you might ask about the
power outage the answer is norm norm
fairness finding it this way see the big
hockey puck on top of hockey town cafe
normally that would be spinning around
yeah not a big power outage as you
pointed out four numbers of people under
six hundred customers but I guarantee
you this is a very expensive power
outage for a place that otherwise an
opening day might have a few folks in
there spending money it was so right
yeah we'll keep following that - all
right Steve
