Blogs keep baseball fans informed

It's an exciting time in Detroit right now as we wait for the World Series to begin this weekend, featuring our Tigers and yet-to-be-named challenger. It's been 22 years since the Tigers' trip to the 1984 World Series and victory, so fans are understandably eager.

...But with a few days to go before the series starts, what's the best way to keep up to date with the latest from the MLB? Fan blogs. Take a look at some of these devoted Detroit Tiger bloggers and see how they're keeping themselves busy, and keeping readers informed, as they wait for Game 1.

The Detroit TIger Weblog: Combinging his love of the Tigers, baseball, and writing, Bill Ferris has been covering the Tigers for the past five years online. One of his most recent entries, Killing Time, sums up how many Tiger fans are feeling this week.
Tiger Blog: Brian Borawski provides a good voice on this blog with enough facts, scores, and charts from around the leagues to keep any devoted Tiger content.
Mack Avenue Tigers: I appreciated Kurt's recent thoughts on how a World Series appearance is so much more than just a baseball game for the city of Detroit.
Bless You Boys: A Detroit Tigers Blog: If there was a more perfect name for a Tigers' fan blog, I can't think of it...

Looking at these dedicated Tiger bloggers reminds that there really is a blog out there for everyone.

If the blogs aren't enough to keep your World Series needs satisfied until Saturday, take a look at this clip from Game 4 of the American League series. With more than 15,000 views on YouTube, you can bet it's been keeping web-savvy Tigers fans happy, including yours truly.
