Game 56 vs. CLE

Out of all the offense the Tigers have put up this season, they hit their first grand slam this evening. Michael Morse cashed in with the bases loaded off of Derek Lowe. He only pitched 2 innings.

Despite the slam, the Tigers played a lot of "small ball". Andre Ethier had 2 bunts; Adam Jones had one as well. Both of Ethier's led to RBIs.

With this start, Jordan Zimmerman has made up his skipped start. He was scheduled to pitch against the Yankees, but Verlander took his place. Everything is back on schedule, and we will see Josh Beckett and his sub-1.00 ERA tomorrow!
