After trading away Justin Verlander and Justin Upton, things weren't expected to be bright in Detroit for the Tigers, but even their luck appears to have run out.

In the first inning of Sunday's contest against the Cleveland Indians at Comerica Park, left fielder Mikie Mahtook gifted Jose Ramirez with a home run after accidentally swatting a line drive off the top of the fence into the bleachers.

The Tigers are winless since trading Verlander and Upton.
