Bill Welke, a Michigan native, is the brother of Tim Welke, an umpire who was at center of a blown call in an April 22 game when he allowed the decisive run to score in the 10th inning of a Tigers loss to Texas, on a bunt which struck batter Alberto Gonzalez in the field of play.

That's the fire we need out of Leyland. Now, kick some ass w/ some of these guys. Raburn batting second and Peralta batting six is a recipe for failure.

Porcello sporting leg bruise, still on track to start Friday.
Rick Porcello has a good-sized bruise on his left leg from the Joe Mauer comebacker, but that's about the extent of his damage from what he admitted was an interesting Sunday outing. He has no after-effects from catching a cleat and slipping off the mound at Minnesota, either.

Porcello is scheduled to start off the Tigers' upcoming homestand Friday night against the Yankees, and he hopes Sunday's effort was a building block.

"I was able to keep us in the game," he said.
Porcello gave up three runs on nine hits over six innings, with three walks and two strikeouts. It marked his first quality start in four outings. It also marked his best ratio of groundouts (13) to flyouts (10) in five outings since May 1. By comparison, he had twice as many flyouts (12) than groundouts (six) in his previous start at Cleveland last week.
