Detroit Tigers Team Notes Over 3 Million Views!!! Thankyou!

Tigers team ERA is 2.96 the last 24G, but record is just 12-12, because offense has avg'd just 3.8R/G in that time....
 
September 5 in Tigers and history:

1971: The Tigers tie a major-league record by using six pinch hitters in the 7th inning, but lose 6 - 5 to the Yankees anyway.

1984: Cal Ripken's 1st-inning error lets in Alan Trammell with a run, and that's it as the Tigers beat Baltimore 1 - 0. Juan Berenguer is the winner with Willie Hernandez picking up his 28th save. Mike Flanagan goes all the way in the loss. Detroit's magic number is now 15.

1995: Cal Ripken ties Lou Gehrig's all-time mark by appearing in his 2,130th consecutive game.

Here is how the past eight games have gone for the Tigers:

Three one-run losses to the sub-.500 Royals.

Three wins over the White Sox to catch them for first place.

Two one-run losses to the Indians, who arrived at Comerica Park on Monday having lost 29 of their past 35 games.
 
AL wOBA leaders: Trout, Cabrera, Encarnacion, Fielder, Hamilton. Jackson 10th.
Essentially same leaders in wRC.

Jered Weaver to Miss Tigers Series....nothing trivial we hope.

@Spockmaster.... Leyland has said Avisail Garcia won't play against RHP at this point. Don't want to overload him. So don't expect it, anyway.

Tigers havent been swept at home by CLE in 4 yrs. They will try to avoid it tonight.
 
Verlander has 5 starts this year where he's gone 7 IP or more and allowed 2 ER or less and gotten a loss or ND.
