When was the last time the tigers shut a team out!

May 28th...we beat the Orioles 3-0. That's our only other shut out this season.

So happy they got the win, and especially the shutout. Jimenez was a bit wild but got it done.

James McCann is the 1st White Sox player with multiple grand slams in a season since Carlos Quentin in 2010.
