Today the Tigers hop on the train to Pittsburgh, to finish off that annual MLB-manufactured-rivalry home-and-home thing with the Pirates. By the end of this series the Tigers will have started the season with 67% of their games as Interleague games, and 44% of them playing without the DH.
Today’s Interleagueal Lineup:
- Kinsler, 2B
- Upton, LF
- Cabrera, 1B
- JD Martinez, LF
- Castellanos, 3B
- Saltalamacchia, C
- Iglesias, SS
- Gose, CF
- Greene, P
Shane Greene has never had a hit or a sacrifice in his career. No matter, Gates Martinez is on the bench for late-inning heroics.
