Detroit — Moving on, finally here comes a series that actually matters for the Detroit Tigers.
Let's bring on the Baltimore Orioles for what could be described, in homage to those old Gus Mackers, as the Toilet Bowl.
The Tigers were swept in Thursday's straight doubleheader by the Yankees at Comerica Park, including 6-4 in the chilly, mist-filled nightcap which was almost all Yankees, starting with Aaron Judge launching a home run to right field two batters into the first inning.
The Tigers lost the first game, 10-4.
The Yankees hit four home runs on the day — the last one being Gio Urshela's pinch-hit blast in the ninth inning — and 10 in the series, meaning Tigers pitchers have allowed 129 home runs at Comerica Park in 2019.
