After giving up 11 runs in Tuesday's loss, Detroit bounced back Wednesday with a 7-2 win. Tigers third baseman Nick Castellanos returned to the lineup and went 2-of-4, including one for a homer, and drove in four RBIs.
"I've been using a lot of top hand, kind of rolling over pitches I should stay through," he told the Associated Press. "Now, with my finger being hurt on my top hand, I have to use a lot more bottom hand. It helped me out tonight. I really didn't try to do too much."
Tigers starting pitcher Max Scherzer also played a big part in the win, earning his 13th victory of the season and extending his unbeaten streak to seven straight starts. He allowed only one run on five-hit ball and fanned six White Sox batters through the seven innings he pitched.
The win made Scherzer the first AL pitcher to reach 13, and it pushed him to a 5-0 record in his last seven starts after giving up 10 runs to Kansas City on June 17.
"You have to ignore the scoreboard sometimes, and go out there and just pitch," Scherzer said. "The dumb philosophy is just -- 'I'll give them heaters' -- you're up 6-0, you don't want to get beat. Fortunately, I've had the luxury of pitching in these situations because of this offense that we have. I've found that you need to throw your offspeed almost a little bit more, because their hitters are going up there gearing up for the fastball."
Tigers pitcher Drew Smyly (6-9, 3.77 ERA) is scheduled to start Thursday and will be opposed by John Danks (9-6, 4.40).
