Tiger Marge

Marge Colburn is turning 90! To celebrate her birthday and devotion to her favorite baseball team, season ticket-holder and super fan, Tiger Marge was invited to throw out the first pitch at last Tuesday's game at Comerica Park. Sporting special Tigers "Colburn 90" t-shirts, Marge, her four children, Elizabeth, Sarah, William and Mary, and a fan club of 35 people gathered to celebrate the big day.

This seems like the logical spot for a photo of Tiger Marge throwing out the first pitch. You might ask, Melanie, where is a photo of the first pitch? Well, that's a surprise for the family for later! :)
