Daniel Schlereth flirted with baseball history this evening. He exceeded all expectations, and he nearly defied all odds. He took a perfect game into the 8th inning. He retired the first 22 batters, before Adrian Beltre's single found its way between 1st and 2nd base.
The reliever-gone-starter had both his longest and most successful outing on the same night. Kudos to him. Even with the sensational pitching, the Tigers still provided more than enough offense, highlighted by two Prince Fielder home runs.
Victor Martinez (day-to-day) left the game after being hit by a pitch in his first at bat. There was no retaliation, as it would have threatened the perfect game bid.
