When We Last Met

David Price bounced back from his blow out against the Yankees and dominated the Indians, while the Detroit Tigers hitters took to Corey Kluber  and gave him his most disappointing start since his first of the season in April. The Tigers are a half a game back from the Royals, whi are playing the Texas Rangers.

Pitching Matchup 

Kyle Lobstein(0-0, 3.09 ERA) has given up four earned runs on eight hits in 11.2 innings. He was sharp in his first major league star, though he did not get the win. He has never faced the Indians in his career as this is his second ever ML start.

Carlos Carrasco(6-4, 3.01 ERA) is 2-4 with a 8.07 ERA against the Tigers in his career.
