Trailing 3-0 after three after two and 4-1 through four, with Sean Burke laboring to a degree that hadn't been seen in several weeks, and with the primary bullpen options likely unavailable after being used in back-to-back games, this afternoon's tilt against the Tigers showed why it's tough for any team to sweep.
