Team RISP: 2-for-10.
Team LOB: 6

Post game.
Sanchez said he felt fine, and still does, but didn't have his usual velocity - no apparent shoulder concerns, though.
After the game, Anibal Sanchez seemed relieved that he feels fine but befuddled that he didn't have the normal velocity on his fastball.
Just saw Sanchez said (via @Tom_Gage) that he felt fine, no shoulder concerns, which is great...hope issues today were related to layoff.
Gage, Iott, Dickerson

June 16 in Tigers and mlb history:

1909 - Jim Thorpe makes his baseball pitching debut for the Rocky Mount Railroaders (Eastern Carolina League) with a 4 - 2 win over the Raleigh Red Birds. It is the professional play in this year that will later cause him to lose his Olympic gold medals won in the 1912 Olympics (thus violating the amateur status rules). In 1983, thirty years after his death, his medals will be restored.

1938 - At Sportsman's Park, the St. Louis Browns walk Red Sox star Jimmie Foxx all six times he comes to bat. The Browns' decision to pitch carefully to Foxx does not prevent the Red Sox from winning the game, 12 - 8. Being intentionally walked six times in a nine-inning game, Foxx sets an American League record and matches the mark set by Walt Wilmot in the National League in 1891.

1993 - Ken Griffey, Jr. of the Seattle Mariners hits his 100th career home run in Seattle's 6 - 1 victory over Kansas City to become the fourth-youngest to hit the century mark. Only Mel Ott, Eddie Mathews and Tony Conigliaro did it faster than the 23-year-old Griffey.

1996 - Legendary broadcaster Mel Allen dies at the age of 83. In 1939, Allen started doing play-by-play for both the New York Yankees and New York Giants, and later narrated the long-running television show, This Week in Baseball. In 1978, Allen received the Hall of Fame's Ford C. Frick Award for broadcasting excellence.

Why the Tigers lost on Saturday.
from the freep

4-13: The record of the Tigers? bullpen.

LONG AND SHORT: The Tigers? streak of consecutive quality starts ended at 14 when Sanchez exited in the fourth. Sanchez has been the starter the only two times in the last 21 games that the Tigers haven?t gotten a quality start (at least six innings, no more than three earned runs).

SIX STRAIGHT: Alex Avila has gone six games in a row without a hit and is hitting .162.

SAY WHAT? In his first game back after three days off, Andy Dirks went 0-for-4 with four grounders to second base.

CABRERA AND RBIS: In the last four games, Miguel Cabrera has no at-bats with a runner in scoring position and no RBIs. The four games without an RBI matches his season high.
