After being washed out on Thursday and relegating the much-anticipated first Spring Training start of Justin Verlander to the bullpen, the Detroit Tigers head to Tampa to face the New York Yankees for the second of three exhibition games this season with the Yanks. The Tigers will be playing in their lone night game of the exhibition season.

When We Last Met

The Tigers newly found aggressiveness on the basepads got them into a bunch of trouble last Friday in Lakeland against the Yankees. Four players were thrown out on the bases and Max Scherzer and Jose Ortega gave up two solo shots while the Detroit offense was slowed by losing the runners on the bases. Ultimately they scored four runs, but it wasn’t enough in the 7-4 defeat.
