Zimmermann has a ‘clunker,’ Tigers crunched

Detroit -- It's been said, many times, baseball is a funny game.

For example, the previous two games, rookies Michael Fulmer and Matt Boyd combined to hold the thunderous Toronto Blue Jays to two runs, total.

They each make less money per season than Jordan Zimmermann banks per start, yet it was Zimmermann who was rocked in the series finale Wednesday afternoon on a sunny, brisk day at Comerica Park.

The Blue Jays offense, as dangerous as just about any in the game, even if it didn't seem so the first two days, teed off in downing the Tigers, 7-2.
