Tigers catcher James McCann's first big league home run was an inside-the-parker

Pretty much everyone dreams of hitting their first home run in the Majors: They picture the sound of the bat as it launches the ball out toward the stratosphere, the roar of the crowd as they realize just how far it travelled, the despair on the face of the pitcher who will forever be relegated to a footnote in the biography of your life.

Detroit catcher James McCann hit his first career home run in the sixth inning of Wednesday's Tigers-Twins game, but it probably didn't go like he had always imagined it.

Here are the Cliffs Notes:

Yeah -- it was an inside-the-park home run.

Perhaps more importantly, McCann's rapid round tripper tied the game up at seven runs each. However, it didn't stay that way for long -- an Andrew Romine RBI single in the eighth and a Miguel Cabrera two-run shot in the ninth gave the Tigers the lead and the win, defeating the Twins 10-7.
