Pitching Match-Up<br />
</h2>
<p>
<b>Cleveland: </b>Josh Tomlin (0-4 8.05 ERA)<br />
<b>Detroit:</b> Francisco Liriano (3-1 3.35 ERA)
</p>
<p></p>
<p>
Tomlin has yet to record a win this season going 0-4, and he hasn't pitched well with zero quality starts and getting tagged for four or more runs in four of his starts. In his last start, he gave up four earned runs on eight hits giving up three HR in seven innings in a 7-6 loss to the New York Yankees. He has now given up 13 home runs in 25 2/3 innings. The Indians lone win with Tomlin on the hill came in his second start of the season facing the Tigers where he went five innings and did not give up any earned runs allowing four hits in the 2-1 Cleveland win. In 17 career appearances, including 13 starts, against the Tigers Tomlin is 7-6 with an ERA of 4.87.
