Matthew Boyd has given up a few more home runs than he'd like lately. That doesn't mean he's planning to make any major alterations.

Boyd has allowed seven long balls over his last four starts, including a season-high three at Cleveland on Friday. The five runs he allowed in six innings were also the most he's given up in 16 starts.

"I made a few mistakes," said the current Tigers ace, who will make his next start against Texas on Wednesday night.
