The Detroit Tigers entered their weekend series with the New York Yankees riding high on a three-game winning streak while also winning five of their past seven, including four of five from the division-leading Minnesota Twins. That pink cloud quickly turned to grey on Friday night when Gerrit Cole spun 6 2⁄3 perfect innings before Jonathan Schoop finally broke through with a single. Ultimately, the good guys took a beating at the hands of the Bronx Bombers, taking a 13-0 loss.
The way I see it, everybody takes a beating sometime.
