Tigers Vs. Yankees
One day after the Detroit Tigers and New York Yankees were each shut out during a doubleheader, there's good reason to believe both may struggle to score again.
Justin Verlander and CC Sabathia square off in a matchup of elite aces as the Yankees try to salvage a split of a four-game series at Comerica Park on Thursday afternoon.
Detroit became the first team to blank the Yankees in a 2-0 win Wednesday afternoon, but New York (22-11) returned the favor and snapped its first three-game losing streak with an 8-0 victory in the nightcap.
Neither team's lineup will have an enviable task Thursday, with two pitchers on the mound who finished among the top four in AL Cy Young Award voting in 2009.
