--RHP Zach Miner didn't have a good consistent sinker Sunday and that, plus some hot Baltimore bats, contributed to his getting only four outs in the first bad start he had since joining the Detroit rotation.
The Detroit Tigers placed reliever Todd Jones on the 15-day disabled list with a sore right shoulder Sunday, two days after he came off the DL and gave up five unearned runs.
The Detroit Tigers knew in order to have any chance to make a run in the AL Central race, they'd have to begin to make up ground in their 10-game homestand that began on Aug.
