Thursday night, he was a grand slam machine, but it's now Friday night. And A's third baseman Brandon Inge is an RBI machine. Why? Because he had four RBI against the Tigers -- the team that cut him a few weeks ago -- meaning he's now had four RBI or more four times in the last five games.
And that puts him in pretty good company. Check it out:
According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Inge is the 1st player with four 4+ RBI games in a 5-game stretch since Lou Gehrig in 1931. #Athletics

Yeah, I know ... Lou Gehrig and Brandon Inge mentioned in the same sentence. I'm gathering a bunch of bottled water, blankets, flashlights and canned goods myself. This can't end well for any of us.
