Game 129: Tigers at Royals

PREGAME: Zach Miner looks to bounce back from a rough outing against the Orioles. He didn’t make it out of the secon inning before allowing 5 runs on 6 hits and 4 walks. That came after 3 straight starts in which he pitched into the 6th inning and allowed 3 earned runs or fewer.

For the Royals it will be Kyle Davies. Davies has efficiency issues. He hasn’t recorded a 6th inning out since July 13th. In his last start against Detroit, he limited the Tigers to 2 runs on 5 hits and a walk, but he was lifted after 4 innings and 96 pitches.

  1. That was a pretty easy win. Zach is making a solid case for the ’09 rotation. He seems so much more comfortable as a starter.

  2. Minor with a good win. Cabrera strikes again. This has been a nice road trip for the Tigers. Winning 4 out of 5 games so far.

  3. just got back from hellboy…love the movies. nice to see us win another game. seems like this team is a little like jason grilli…play well when there is no pressure.

  4. Zach Miner, unless he totally implodes, should be penciled in for the 2009 rotation.
