Detroit – James McCann couldn’t believe what he was hearing.
“(Michael) Fulmer came up to me a little while ago and said, ‘Thanks for hanging with me, I didn’t have my best stuff tonight,’” McCann said. “I said, ‘You gave up two hits; an infield single and the other kind of caught (Ian) Kinsler off guard. Two infield singles. And you didn’t have your best stuff?’
“He’s really got it going right now.”
Yes, he does. And so do the Tigers.
Fulmer pitched six scoreless, two-hit innings Monday and the offense pounded out 15 hits, putting the Blue Jays to rout, 11-0 in the first of a three-game series.
