I hear that the Tigers have already been given a magic number.  It was
51 a few days ago, so it must be below 50 by now.  This is the earliest
I've ever seen anyone talk about magic numbers.

Connected with this, I don't have my record book available, so perhaps
someone could tell me the earliest date a team has clinched the pennant
(both by game number and calendar date).  Also, what is the widest margin
by which a team has won a pennant?
