If they get a quality relief pitcher they'll really kill the American League ...
A Royal Bengal tiger killed a man in Khukumari area of the Sundarbans yesterday, police said.

The victim is Khokon Sana, 35, son of Abdul Bari Sana of village Kashimari in Shyamnagar upazila. Khokon went to the Sundarbans to collect reeds (goalpata) on January 27. While collecting leaves in Khukumari area, a tiger swooped on him and dragged him into deep forest. Later, locals recovered the body from deep forest.

When contacted, Shyamnagar Police Station officer-in-charge Abdur Razzak confirmed the incident.
"Yup, that's Khokon allright. I'd recognize that thigh bone anywhere."
