Justin Verlander once again struggled and the Detroit Tiger lost once again. This time Verlander lost to the Cleveland Indians by the score of 9-5. Verlander gave up seven hits and five runs in six innings of action. His record is now a terrible 10-14 on the season.

Verlander wasn’t the only Tigers pitcher to throw the ball badly however. Gary Glover and Bobby Seay both gave up two runs in one inning of action. They didn’t help out one bit as they let the Indians extend there lead too far. Kyle Farnsworth allowed two hits but didn’t allow a run to cross the plate.

Magglio Ordonez made things interesting in the ninth inning when he hit a two run home run which was his 16th of the season. Ordonez also had a rbi double in the seventh inning. Curtis Granderson had a solo home run of his own and also a rbi single as he finished with two rbi. Brandon Inge and Ramon Santiago both tried to help out with an rbi each of their own but the Tigers still fell two runs short.
