« The 1968 Season Has Begun | Tigers Suffer Third Shutout of the Season In Loss to White Sox »


When It Rains, It Pours

The Tigers couldn’t even fell too good about their second win of the season last night because Dontrelle Willis is now on the shelf.  He hyperextended his knee in the first inning and as of now, it’s unclear as to when Willis will be ready to throw again.  Give some props to the pen in this one (I know I got on them yesterday).  Aquilino Lopez gave up just one run in four innings and then Jason Grilli threw three shutout innings to allow the Tigers to pad the score.  For now, a decision hasn’t been made as to whether Willis will hit the DL and who his replacement would be if he does.

Brandon Inge had another nice day at the plate.  He went two for four with with two runs and an RBI.  That brings his season RBI total up to nine.  Magglio Ordonez singled and he drove in two runs in the contest.

The two teams square off again and it’s a one o’clock start.  Justin Verlander will go for his first win and it’ll be Gavin Floyd throwing for the White Sox.
