TORONTO -- Marcus Stroman was back to his old ways in the Blue Jays' 3-2 win over the Tigers on Friday night at Rogers Centre. From his pre-pitch hesitations to his mid-pitch shimmy, Stroman's personality was back on display, too.
Stroman tied his season high with seven innings pitched and allowed just two runs on five hits while striking out four. After throwing five shutout innings in his first start off the disabled list last week, the right-hander was aggressive and efficient.
The slider was a big pitch for Stroman on Friday, which he threw on 33 of his 90 pitches.
