The Detroit Tigers are more than two months into the 2022 season.
They aren't getting any better. The offense remains a disaster, averaging 2.71 runs per game, and Chris Fetter's unexpectedly sturdy pitching staff is beginning to fall apart.
The Tigers lost, 13-0, to the Chicago White Sox in Wednesday's series finale at Comerica Park, with a first-pitch temperature of 94 degrees. Swept in the three games, the Tigers (24-38) have dropped five of their past six contests.
Detroit has the third-worst record in the American League with 100 games remaining.
The White Sox hammered the Tigers for 13 runs on 21 hits and three walks with 11 strikeouts, finishing 8-for-22 with runners in scoring position.
