Max Scherzer certainly did his part on Friday night by serving up five runs in the first inning which fueled Boston’s 7-2 win. What happened on Saturday was the [...]

ESPN highlights available here. The Score: Rangers 8 – Tigers 4 The Gist: Jekyll and Hyde. Rick Porcello‘s sophomore tumble continues and Dontrelle Willis can’t seem to decide whether or not he wants to stick in the rotation this season.

ESPN highlights available here. The Score: Tigers 6 – Royals 5 The Gist: Dontrelle Willis‘s second start was a lot uglier than his first (5 IP, 9 H, 4 ER, 3 BB, 104 pitches) but he managed to escape again with a no decision. The Tigers’ lineup again could not solve Brian Bannister — no [...]
