Postseason Excitement

It's that time of year again, time for Major League Baseball's postseason. There are many twists and turns this time of year, with the usual favorites and underdogs. Last night was a 13 inning thriller between the Chicago Cubs and the Colorado Rockies, with the Rockies moving on to play the Milwaukee Brewers. Whenever the postseason comes around, I think of when the Tigers were in the Postseason in 2006, which really revived baseball in the metro area. It seems like whenever a Tiger showed up anywhere to sign autographs or take pictures, lines would be out the door of the location. What I have heard (can anyone confirm or deny this?) is that wherever a Tiger went anywhere with family, fans would come up and shake their hand, or in a rare case, pay for his and his family's dinner or purchase, thanking them for what they were doing for baseball in the metro area. I also think of the four consecutive division titles from 2011-2014, with the team going to the World Series in 2012. Make sure you enjoy the ride through the postseason.
