Don’t look now, but the Detroit Tigers are playing winning baseball.
With their 3-2 win Thursday, they have officially taken four-out-of-five against the AL Central-leading Minnesota Twins and have won six of their last seven overall.
Rookie starting pitcher Alex Faedo once again proved he belonged. The former first round pick pitched five strong innings, allowing two runs on five hits with five strikeouts. His ERA through six career starts sits at an impressive 3.09. He was good with fastball-slider again, but this time the changeup was also more of a weapon along the way.
