After Simon delivered a 0-1 pitch to Pablo Sandoval with nobody out in the seventh inning, he appeared to reach for the upper portion of his right leg.

Simon had to leave the game with an apparent knee injury after throwing two pitches in the seventh. He seemed to aggravate his knee the previous inning snaring a hard grounder from David Ortiz.
 
July 26 in Tigers and mlb history:

1916 - Tigers favorite Harry Heilmann gets an appreciative hand from the crowd for having dived into the Detroit River last night to save a woman from drowning.

1937 - Mickey Cochrane resumes command of the Detroit Tigers as a bench manager.

1957 - Jim Bunning of the Tigers 2-hits New York 3 - 2, but one of the hits is Mickey Mantle's 200th homer of his career. Al Kaline knocks in two of the Tigers runs today.

2014: The Hall of Fame announces a change in voting rules, as players will now be able to stay on the BBWAA ballot for a maximum of 10 and not 15 years, as long as they meet the minimum 5% threshold. The move is designed to prevent the ballot from becoming overly crowded because of players tainted by steroids staying on the ballot for years on end with no realistic chance of election, but drawing votes away from more legitimate candidates. However, a number of inductees with an untainted record have had to wait over 10 years for election in recent years, such as Jim Rice, Bert Blyleven or Andre Dawson, making it likely that the rule change will have the effect of also squeezing out some worthy candidates.
