The Tigers comeback stalled in the ninth inning on Saturday when JD Martinez hit into a double play. The Tigers have had several rallies killed this year by twin killings.
Double plays are an absolute killer. The Tigers have been in several close games this season and double plays have been a major culprit in some of those losses. Double plays are obviously a negative, but some things have to right to hit into in the first place.
The Tigers lead the American League in both batting average and on-base percentage. These are obvious positives.
