Detroit — Late in the game Wednesday, Jake Rogers turned to his fellow catcher Eric Haase in the Tigers dugout.
"Man, I don't think I've had a pop-up, a play at the plate, a bunt play and throw-out in a game in a long time," he said.
Throw in a key sacrifice bunt in the eighth inning and calling and catching nine innings of shutout ball, and Rogers contributed about as much a player can to a victory without getting a base hit.
"We played pretty good baseball today," Rogers said after the Tigers secured a 1-0 win over the Cleveland Indians at Comerica Park.
