Detroit — Rookie Tigers pitcher Spencer Turnbull will have to wait until next year to put a halt to his running piece of negative history.
A two-run single by Willians Astudillo off reliever David McKay in the top of the seventh inning insured that Turnbull would not, in his 17th career home start, get his first career win at Comerica Park.
And when the Minnesota Twins completed the 4-2 victory over the Tigers Tuesday — reducing their magic number to clinch the Central Division title to two — Turnbull had lost for the 12th time at his home park, and 11th time this year.
