Detroit Tigers Newsletter: Steel yourself for a rocky MLB trade deadline

Right-hander Derek Law had an ... ummm ... inauspiciousDetroit Tigers debut Saturday in Toronto.

Over a 13-pitch span in the sixth inning, he (in order) hit a batter, committed an error, threw a wild pitch and gave up a homer, turning a 3-1 Tigers lead into a 5-3 loss to the Blue Jays and making franchise history in the process.

Forget your Fernando Rodney flashbacks, your Francisco Rodriguez meltdowns and your Todd Jones roller coaster rides — Law became the only Tiger, in the franchise’s 122 seasons, to do all four in a single relief appearance.
