Tigers lineup vs. Rays, Game 4: Porcello vs. Moore

The Tigers (3-0) host Tampa Bay (3-0) having won seven of their last eight games against the Rays. Rick Porcello makes his season debut on the mound, facing much-hyped Tampa rookie Matt Moore.

Here's the lineup the Tigers are trotting out against the left-handed Moore:

Austin Jackson, CF (.571, 2-2B, 1-3B, 5R)
Brennan Boesch, RF (.133, 1 RBI, 2K)
Miguel Cabrera, 3B (.455, 3 HR, 8 RBI)
Prince Fielder, 1B (.417, 2 HR, 3 RBI)
Delmon Young, LF (.231, 2R, 1 RBI)
Ryan Raburn, DH (.167, 2R, 4K)
Jhonny Peralta, SS (.417, 2-2B, 3 RBI)
Gerald Laird, C (first game action)
Danny Worth, 2B (1.000, 1R)

*NOTE: Ramon Santiago was a late scratch with the virus that's been going around the Tigers clubhouse. He was originally scheduled to start at 2B.

TAMPA LINEUP:
Desmond Jennings, CF
Carlos Pena, 1B
Evan Longoria, 3B
Matt Joyce, LF
Ben Zobrist, RF
Jeff Keppinger, DH
Sean Rodriguez, 2B
Jose Molina, C
Reid Brignac, SS
