Live Tigers blog: Verlander throws 1-2-3 2nd

Justin Verlander set the Twins down 1-2-3 in the bottom of the second inning.

Max Kepler grounded out to third base before Robbie Grossman hit a line drive right at Verlander, which he deflected to Andrew Romine at second base, who threw to first to complete the 1-4-3 putout. Verlander then struck out Eduardo Escobar looking — the second strikeout of the game for both — to end the inning. After two, the Tigers are still up, 2-0.
