Daniel Norris, who starts for Mud Hens tonight, would be on turn to step in if Zimmermann can't make next start.
 
August 5 in Tigers and mlb history:

1929 - Despite three triples by Charlie Gehringer, the Senators overwhelm the Tigers 21 - 5. Sam Rice and Buddy Myer each have four hits and four runs as every hitter in the lineup hits a safety.

1931 - Detroit P Tommy Bridges has a brush with baseball immortality when he retires the first 26 Washington Senators to face him, before surrendering a hit to pinch hitter Dave Harris. The Tigers win the game 13 - 0. Charlie Gehringer has 4 hits with 2 rbi, CF John Stone and RF Earl Webb have 2 hits each and 5 RBI between them. But Tommy Bridges also with 2 hits and rbi, is the pitching star here as he also struck out 7 senators.

1942 - White Sox 1B Don Kolloway's 2-out steal of home in the 5th inning is the only run of the game against Tiger lefty Hal Newhouser. Sore-armed Thornton Lee is the winner. There are seven games played today, and five end in shutouts.

1959 - Mickey Mantle breaks up a scoreless pitching duel between Detroit's Don Mossi and Bobby Shantz by belting an 8th-inning homer with one on. New York wins at home 3 - 0.

1964: After weeks of negotiating, Ford Frick tells the league presidents and club owners he will not run for another term as commissioner.

1972 - Tiger shortstop Ed Brinkman commits an error, ending his major league record of 72 games and 331 total chances without making a misplay.

1986 - After Detroit wins the opener 6 - 5, game two starts off with Detroit's first two hitters - Lou Whitaker and Alan Trammell - belting homers off Cleveland's Jose Roman. It is the 3rd time in a month this has occurred. Whitaker hits another as Detroit wins the shootout 11 - 9.

2001 - Detroit falls to Oakland by a score of 5 - 1. In doing so, the Tigers tie a major league record by scoring only one run in their 5th consecutive game. The last of the seven teams who did so were the 1968 Los Angeles Dodgers.

2002 - In a make-up game against the Angels, the Tigers host "Silent Night". The fans hear no electronic, video and commercial enhancements during Detroit's 6 - 3 loss to Anaheim at Comerica Park.

2012: The Tigers rally for 5 runs with two outs in the bottom of the 10th inning to pull out a 10 - 8 win over the Indians. Cleveland leads, 8 - 5, with two outs and nobody on in the 10th when Chris Perez opens the floodgates by walking Alex Avila and Andy Dirks. Austin Jackson doubles in a run and Omar Infante follows with a two-run single that ties the game. Miguel Cabrera then hits his 27th homer to cap the wild win. Darin Downs earns his first major league victory.
