This is, of course, great news for Detroit Tigers’ fans, not only increasing the chances of winning, but just upping the sheer entertainment factor of every game he’s involved in. This is also great news for baseball fans who just simply love to see the guy hit a baseball.

During his career in Detroit, which began in 2008, Miguel has hit some timely, clutch and entertaining home runs.
