The ChiSox, meanwhile, hit the road for a three-game set against the New York Yankees, who are somehow just 7-6 against the AL Central this season. Cease struck out eight, but also surrendered four runs on four hits - the biggest of which was Akil Baddoo’s third-inning grand slam.Īfter today, the Tigers and White Sox wrap up the series with another day game Sunday on the South Side before going their separate ways the Tigers will head straight to Philly for a reunion with Dave Dombrowski, Nick Castellanos, Gregory Soto and, of course, Kody Clemens during a three-game set on Monday-Wednesday. That’s largely thanks to 29 walks in just 62⅔ innings, including four in his four-inning start Sunday against the Tigers in Detroit. (OK, it was probably more the result of the former than the latter.) But the underlying stats - namely, an MLB-high 78 walks in 184 innings - suggested a regression toward league average, and, sure, enough, Cease has already allowed three-fourths of his earned run total from all of last season (34 in 2023, 45 in 2022).

Lorenzen retired the first 17 batters he faced before Romy González broke up the perfect game in the sixth inning. That hot run, which is certainly making Tigers president of baseball operations Scott Harris look pretty good, included 6⅔ innings of two-run (none earned) ball last weekend against the White Sox. That should be Michael Lorenzen’s motto as he makes his first start in June after posting a 1.95 ERA - that’s seven earned runs in 32⅓ innings - last month.
