Verlander drops to 0-4 as Blue Jays beat Tigers 10-5 (Yahoo Sports)
The Detroit Tigers need strong performances from Justin Verlander if they are going to win their sixth straight AL Central title, and right now the former ace is far from his best. Jose Bautista and Justin Smoak homered in a six-run fifth inning against the 2011 AL Cy Young Award winner and MVP, who is 15-14 since sports-hernia surgery before the 2014 season. Once a famed perfectionist, Verlander (0-2) gave up seven hits and two walks in five innings, striking out five.
