The playoffs can be stressful on members of a team’s front office, so maybe Al Avila – Vice President & Assistant GM of the Detroit Tigers – didn’t get much sleep last night. That might explain why Avila, who is also the father of Tigers catcher Alex Avila, kept nodding off during the fourth inning of Thursday’s ALDS Game 1 against the Orioles.
Either that or he’s the slowest blinker of all-time. I’m leaning more towards the former.
