Tigers hope back-to-back wins are fresh start

It's a small sample size, two games since the Tigers dropped to .500 with Saturday's loss to the Yankees. But it's also a fresh start.

"We got down to .500," catcher James McCann said. "We understand it's a long season, and you can take sample sizes all you want, but at the end of the day it's basically a 94-game season. ...

"Yeah, I guess you could call it a reset button."

It came out of maybe the low point of the season, a 14-3 loss to the Yankees in which the Tigers gave up a season high in runs, lost by their second-largest margin of the year, and turned to utility infielder Josh Wilson to pitch the eighth inning.
