Frustrated Jake Rogers Has Been Arrested For Committing The Crime Of With one more home run of the season under his belt, Ramirez will attempt to break beyond the wall for a third straight game on Tuesday.
If the Detroit Tigers hope to snap out of their longest losing streak of the year, they will probably need right-hander Kenta Maeda to maintain his customary May success.
In the meantime, no matter what day of the year it is, the Cleveland Guardians, who lead the American League Central, keep winning. When the teams resume their three-game series on Tuesday, Maeda and the Tigers can avert a fifth straight defeat by stopping the home Guardians from earning their fourth straight victory.
Maeda pitched six innings in the Tigers’ 4-1 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday. The lone run came on a home run in the fourth inning by Willson Contreras. Maeda’s record in May increased to 11-4 with a 3.65 ERA in 24 career starts after the win. “What I know about Kenta so far is when he catches that rhythm, he catches his delivery and he starts to repeat things, he can disrupt timing as good as anybody,” A.J. Hinch, the Tigers manager, said. Hinch needs Detroit’s offense to pick up steam in addition to hoping that Maeda keeps moving in the right path.
The Tigers lost 2-1 in the series opener at Cleveland on Monday, leaving nine men on base and going just 1-for-9 with runners in scoring position after scoring six runs in a three-game set against the home New York Yankees over the weekend. Detroit has been restricted to one run or no runs ten times in 35 games this season, despite being one game above.500. In six career starts against the Guardians, who are 11 games over.500 and coming off a three-game losing streak, Maeda is 3-1 with a 3.86 ERA.
