Tigers' Cameron Maybin: Elevated to leadoff spot
Maybin was elevated to the leadoff spot in Tuesday's lineup after Ian Kinsler (illness) was scratched.
Analysis:
Maybin was set to bat in the lower half of the order Tuesday, but manager Brad Ausmus decided to move him up to account for Kinsler's absence. Maybin has been on fire since rejoining the Tigers, going 14-for-24 (.583) with a home run and five RBI.
