The Tigers simply ran out of gas today. Despite having an early 1-0 lead, they were unable to get anything going against the Devil Rays in Tampa. The Devil Rays took a 2-1 lead in the 4th and never looked back. In the 6th, they put the game out of reach by scoring 4 runs and taking a 7-1 lead. The Tigers scored 2 meaningless runs in the 9th. The final was 7-3.

Chien-Ming Wang has picked up his 12th win of the season. He’s 12-4 now. The Yankees had no trouble getting past the hapless Devil Rays—6-0 final. The Devil Rays were mystified by Wang as he continually put them down. Wang allowed just 2 hits and 2 walks on the night. He only had a lone strikeout. Tampa Bay just could not hit the ball.
