Why Detroit Tigers' Casey Mize feeling 'disappointed' illustrates his 'edge that matters'

Detroit Tigers manager AJ Hinch knew Casey Mize wouldn't be pleased.

"Disappointed, for sure," Mize said Thursday night.

"I love the fact that he's going to leave tonight pretty pissed off," Hinch said. "I mean, he didn't keep the ball in the ballpark the way he wanted to. To his night, he feels he should have thrown a shutout with his stuff. He's got that edge that matters when you're on the mound."

With their ace-of-late pitching, the Tigers (23-33) were beaten by the Chicago White Sox, 4-1, in the four-game series opener at Guaranteed Rate Field.
