Detroit Tigers Team Notes

Latest on Ryan Perry:

RHP Ryan Perry threw 2.1 innings of shutout ball for the Hens Thursday, walking one while fanning two. Perry now has a 3.03 ERA in 20 Toledo appearances this year.

I charted most of Perry's pitches for his two full innings of work (the eighth and the ninth), and for the game he threw 28 pitches -- 17 of which were strikes. His fastball ranged between 93-97 mph (three at 97, two at 96, five at 95, two at 94 and two at 93). His slider ranged between 84-87 mph (one at 84, four at 86, three at 87).

The slider was the key pitch for Perry against Louisville. He threw a really good one to strike out Kristopher Negron to end the ninth; his strikeout of Hermida came on a 97 mph fastball. But there were some sliders that weren't as good, and many of them were up too high in the strike zone, a problem he has had while with Detroit.

August 13 in Tigers history :

1911: Ty Cobb, apparently believing the Tigers can no longer win the pennant race, begins a vacation.

1934 - In a preview of the World Series, the Cardinals play the Tigers in an exhibition game in Detroit. The Deans refuse to make the trip, having both pitched the day before. Dizzy is fined $100 and Paul $50.

1972 - Bengals manager Billy Martin literally picks his starting lineup out of a hat in an attempt to halt the Tigers' 4-game losing streak. The ploy works as Detroit defeats Cleveland 3 - 2. Using a regular lineup in the nightcap, the Tigers lose the second game.

1984 - At Cooperstown, the Tigers beat the Atlanta Braves, 7 - 5 in the annual Hall of Fame Game.

2007 - Placido Polanco plays his 144th consecutive game at second base without an error. This breaks Luis Castillo's record, set earlier this season. The two streaks overlapped for many months. The Tigers still lose dropping them to 8 wins in their past 25 games and a tie for first place with the Indians.

Al Alburquerque Placed on 7-Day DL with Concussion.
from motorcitybengals-tigersblog

The Tigers have indicated that there was some internal bleeding in his head and Alburquerque was placed on the 7-day disabled list after his diagnosis of a concussion.

Until his symptoms dissipate completely, and he passes a battery of tests, Alburquerque will be sidelined. It could be a week, it could be a month, it could be much longer; we just don
