Although Comerica Park was pumped to the max before the game Saturday night, Bob Seger was able to bring a hush over the crowd with a soulful version of "America the Beautiful." Striding out in a leather jacket, Seger sat at the keyboard facing the pitcher's mound. The crowd hung on every note as he crooned the familiar lyrics and put a little rock into phrases like "froo-ooo-ted plain."A small point for the Free Press writer. Seger probably wasn't facing the pitcher's mound. He was most likely facing the American Flag. Just a small point.
A place to follow the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers, the Midwest League, Minor League baseball, Major League Baseball, and everything in between in that order.
