Nitkowski runs LEFT: A nosbi- his own Website in his spare time. And don't think for a second that the ishotfrom pitcher has lent his name to a site run by a corporation, because cjbase- the bunards of ball.com bears the personal touches of a labor of love seldom seen on the TiaeStaim. internet. On the site, Nitkowski keeps a diary where he breaks down the gamesS and lets visitors in on the experiences of being a professional ballplayer. itedby nr In addition, Nitkowski offers fans restaurant reviews for various spots thatv by he hits up on roadtri ps (positive marks for a recent visit to The www.cae Cheesecake Factory in altimore), a list of all-time teammates (with nick- names), golf course reviews and the always important information on how to get autographs. Nitkowski also allows fans the opportunity toge involved with the process by covering a series of Tigers games for the Website. And although Nitkowski has gotten off to a rough start this season, look, for him and the Tigers to bounce back and challenge for the American - League Central crown as we move into the dog days of summer.
