The Detroit Tigers had yet another terrible game as they lost to the Kansas City Royals 2-0 on Wednesday night.  The Tigers are really struggling to score runs right now and when they do score runs, the pitching staff isn’t on top of their game.

In Wendesday’s game against the Royals the Tigers offense was never there it seemed like.  The Tigers only had six hits and left 16 runners on base.  So much for that awesome offense we were talking about before the season started.

Justin Verlander took another loss on the mound as he dropped to 1-7 on the season.  Verlander didn’t pitch badly there just wan’t any run support for him.  He threw six innings and allowed six hits and two runs.  Both the runs came in the second inning on a rbi single.

Clay Rapada and Freddy Dolsi pitched the final two inning of the game without allowing another run score.
