    <content type="html">Miguel Cabrera played his last game today. There were tears all over the ballpark. (his kids and his mom, especially.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Manager AJ Hinch put Miggy in the field one last time, at first base, in the 8th inning after his last at bat in the bottom of the seventh inning.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Steven Kwan hit a grounder four steps to the left of first base. Not a hard play, even for a man with bad knees -- which is why Miggy didn't play in the field this year. Until today. (Kwan is a good enough hitter that he could have done that on purpose.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The radio color guy for the Tigers said 'forget what I said earlier (when Cabrera walked in his last at bat). you can script baseball.'  Thank you Steven Kwan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you Miggy!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=jennlk&amp;ditemid=380646" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
