Testing Grounds The latest industry being outsourced to India is clinical drug trials. And any number of tragic things can happen on the way to your medicine cabinet.
Friday Night Rewind It doesn't matter which team you cheer for. We've got video previews of every high school football program in Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco and Hernando County.
What's new: The Tigers are a mess, having lost 12 of 13 and fallen into last place in a season in which they were picked by many to reach the World Series. … Their bullpen has been bad and their rotation worse. … Tampa-born slugger Gary Sheffield will miss today's game as he finishes serving a suspension.
Key stat: OF Magglio Ordonez is hitting .353 (91-for-258) with 12 homers and 50 RBIs in 68 games at Comerica Park.
Connections: Tigers relievers Casey Fossum, Gary Glover and Bobby Seay are ex-Rays; LHP Kenny Rogers, OFs Matt Joyce and Ryan Raburn are Tampa Bay-area products; pitching coach Chuck Hernandez is both. Rays Trever Miller, Carlos Pena and Troy Percival are former Tigers.
Series history: Rays lead 3-0 this season, 41-37 all time, 19-18 in Detroit.
