Tigers' Justin Verlander: Throws eight strong innings
Verlander (4-4) cruised through eight innings against the Phillies on Tuesday, allowing only three hits and two walks while striking out 10.
Analysis:
It was a vintage performance from Verlander against a lowly Phillies lineup. The 33-year-old didn't allow any runs for the second time in 2016, and he struck out at least 10 for the second straight game. It was one of his best starts in recent memory.
