There were tears all over the ballpark. (his kids and his mom, especially.)<br /><br />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.<br /> <br />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.)<br /><br />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.<br /><br />Thank you Miggy!<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=jennlk&ditemid=380646" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://jennlk.dreamwidth.org/380646.html baseball sandhill cranes carrying on public 1
