Verlander Wins #21, Detroit Tigers Ambush White Sox 8-1
September 2, 2011 Chicago pitcher John Danks wasn't ready for the Tigers in the first inning of tonight's game. When Miguel Cabrera stole second base off Danks in the first (his catcher didn't have a chance to throw out the lumbering Tiger slugger), you had to know that this might be a good night for the team from "The D". Cabrera ended up scoring on a bloop single to left by Alex Avila, and the Tigers staked Justin Verlander to a 3-0 lead. That was more than enough for the Tiger ace, who struck out six in 7 and one third innings of work. The only blemish was a solo home run to White Sox catcher Tyler Flowers in the 8th inning.

Detroit Tigers Take Opener In Big Series With Cleveland
August 20, 2011 Max Scherzer has been hot and cold this season. His electric arm shows the promise of possibly becoming a 20-game winner at some point in his young career. Tiger fans are hoping Scherzer can help the team win some important games in Detroit's drive for the American League Central title, especially against their rivals from Cleveland.

Jim Thome Hits 600th Homer, Detroit Tigers Lose 9-6
August 15, 2011 Jim Thome has made a career of hitting home runs. He came into tonight's game against the Tigers with 598. Before the night was over, he had 5 RBI and career homer #600. Thome becomes only the 8th player in Major League Baseball history to reach the 600 homer milestone. The game started out with a homer by the newest Tiger, Delmon Young, who reached the seats in his first Tiger at-bat in the first inning to put Detroit up 1-0.

Detroit Tigers Beat K.C. 4-3, Verlander Wins 16th
August 6, 2011 On the very first pitch of the game, Alex Gordon of the Royals blasted a Justin Verlander fastball deep into centerfield. The fence at Kaufman Stadium is 410 in dead center. This one went 411, into the glove of Austin Jackson who leaped and pulled it back for a long out. That play set the tone for today's game. Kansas City would come close, but victory would be snatched away from them by the Tigers.

Detroit Tigers Beat Texas Rangers 5-4
August 3, 2011 Doug Fister made his Detroit Tiger debut tonight and did what he's been doing all season long for Seattle. He made a quality start, and unlike when he pitched for the last-place Mariners, he got some run support. Fister went seven innings and gave up 3 runs, 2 of which were earned. A solo homer by Alex Avila in the 6th (his 12th) gave the Tigers a 4-3 lead, and another solo shot from Ryan Raburn in the 8th got Fister his first win since May 30th.

Justin Verlander Flirts With No-Hitter, Detroit Tigers Hang On To Win 3-2
July 31, 2011 Odds are good that one of today's starting pitchers might win the American League Cy Young award. Justin Verlander made his case for the pitching honor by no-hitting the Angels through 7 and 2/3rds innings. An errror by Verlander and another defensive boo-boo allowed two Angel runs to score in the 8th to make this a closer game than it should have been.

Detroit Tigers Annihilate Angels 12-2
July 29, 2011 When Maicer Itzturis launched the second pitch of the game from Detroit's Rick Porcello into the seats, I thought, "Oh no, here we go again." Porcello would settle down after that and scatter 5 hits over 8 innings to earn his 11th win of the season. Brennan Boesch would tie the game in the bottom of the 1st with a moon shot that landed deep in the discount seats in right field.

Detroit Tigers Beat Royals 2-1, Verlander Gets 12th Win
July 10, 2011 The gametime temperature in Kansas City was a humid 95 degrees. The only thing hotter was Tiger ace Justin Verlander, who threw 7 2/3rds innings only giving up one unearned run. Verlander picks up his 12th win of the season before the All-Star break. The last Tiger pitcher to do that was Jack Morris in 1987.
