May 5 in Tigers and mlb history:

1922 - Facing the Detroit Tigers, Bill Bayne of the St. Louis Browns pitches a no-hitter into the 9th inning. Detroit manager Ty Cobb then sends up five straight pinch hitters, the first of whom breaks up the no-hitter. One of the pinch hitters Cobb inserts is Bob Fothergill, who bats for him and strikes out, becoming the only man ever to pinch hit for Cobb. The Browns win.

1925: Detroit Tigers manager Ty Cobb hits three home runs, a double and two singles, to lead his team to an 14 - 8 victory against the St. Louis Browns at Sportsman's Park.

1949 - Charlie Gehringer, star second baseman of the Detroit Tigers between 1926 and 1941, is selected to the Hall of Fame by the Baseball Writers Association of America with 159 votes on 187 ballots.

2013: Justin Verlander makes a bid for his third career no-hitter, keeping the Astros hitless into the 7th inning, before allowing a one-out single to Carlos Pena; he gives up another single to Carlos Corporan but gets out of the inning with a double play ground ball and then leaves. The Tigers win easily, 9 - 0. Verlander is now 4-2 with a 1.55 ERA.

Tigers 9 - Royals 4 ? Justin Verlander couldn?t throw a strike to Nori Aoki, and Billy Butler spoiled his no-hitter with two outs in the 6th. But otherwise, a pleasant day at work, as Detroit closed a lopsided sweep with their 5th straight win, both overall and vs. KC. The Royals dropped the last four of this homestand and begin their first western swing on Monday, while the Bengals head home for their first series with a truly bad team.

Every Tiger had a hit by the 5th inning, when Alex Avila hit his second homer in two days. Detroit is singling teams to death, leading the AL with a .282 BA, but near the bottom with 22 HRs.
Three hits apiece for Rajai Davis and Torii Hunter left those corner OFs at .337 and .319 through 26 games. Torii?s 2,200 hits rank 26th for a career CF, and top-20 is in range this year if he stays healthy.
Aoki came in with 8 walks in 27 games, but strolled in his first three trips against Verlander.

Game 26 is the fastest that Verlander?s ever reached 4 wins in a season; last year?s game 30 was his prior best. KC seemed to reverse their J.V. curse with three straight wins last summer, but he?s now 17-5, 2.88 in 31 career starts against them.
