Detroit Tigers' Brandon Inge Reportedly Escapes Major Injury in Car Accident

The Detroit Tigers can breathe a sigh of relief today knowing that infielder Brandon Inge is doing OK after a multi-car accident that took place in Freedom Township, Michigan early Tuesday morning. 

WXYZ in Ann Arbor is reporting that there were no major injuries in the crash, in which five vehicles were involved. 

The Washtenaw County Sheriff’s Department confirmed that Inge was indeed involved, but that everyone was doing fine. 

The crash took place at 7:30 a.m. at Parker and Scio Church Roads. The report says no citations were given. 

I find it rather strange no tickets were issued for such a big crash. Granted, it may not have been extremely serious, but one that involves five cars is something to take note of.

Somebody had to be at fault, and they should have been given a citation because things could have been a lot worse. 

Accidents happen every day, and you never really know when they're coming. 

Inge has played with the Tigers his whole career, and the veteran do-it-all player plays a very important role on the team. This past season was one of Inge's worst ever, with a batting average of .197 only three home runs and 23 RBI. 

Inge played 102 games during the season and missed time because of a hand injury.
