Tom Brookens and Lance Parrish discuss the ground rules at 5th3rd Ballpark
... they end up managing in the Midwest League.
COMSTOCK PARK -- Old friends reunited.
Tom Brookens and Lance Parrish hadn't shared the same baseball field in more than two decades, but it seemed like old times when the former Detroit Tigers teammates and members of the 1984 World Series champions exchanged lineup cards at home plate before Saturday night's game at Fifth Third Ballpark.
The reunion marked their first meeting as minor-league managers, with Parrish guiding the Great Lakes Loons to a come-from-behind 3-2 victory over the West Michigan Whitecaps in front of 7,562 fans.
I will have more pictures later today- click here for a few more from last night.
