Ludwick Blasts Rangers, Tigers Take Game 3, 11-5
Riding the 3-hit performance of center fielder Ryan Ludwick, the Detroit Tigers flattened the Texas Rangers, 11-5, in Game 3 of the Wild Card Series today. Ludwick belted 2 home runs. He scored 4 times and drove in 3 for the Tigers, who now lead 2-1 in the best-of-7 series.

Detroit used a well-timed hit by Brian Schneider to capture the win. The catcher socked a run-scoring double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Tigers ahead, 3-0. Though it was his only hit in 2 at-bats, it was important.

"We'll sip on a cold one and savor this win," said Schneider.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Thursday, September 27th , 2007.
