Live Tigers blog: Top 4th: Tigers keep Desmond at second

Bottom 4th: Tigers remain without run

After Mike Aviles struck out for the second time, to start the bottom of the fourth, Miguel Cabrera walked to put a runner on base. He was erased on a fielder's choice by Victor Martinez -- on a ground ball that should have yielded an inning-ending double play. Instead, Rangers shortstop Elvis Andrus did not throw to first base, thus extending the inning. Justin Upton struck out swinging for the third out, and after four innings the Tigers remain down, 2-0.
