A sometimes-irreverent look at Detroit's Boys of Summer, the Tigers, as they try to return to the top of the American League Central.

Lineups for penultimate game of regular season (Twins at Tigers, Game 161)


The Tigers have essentially the same scenario as they had a night earlier, needing a win over the Twins and a loss by the Royals to clinch their fourth straight American League Central Division title. They got neither on Friday, dropping the division lead to one game, and keeping the magic number at two. If that happens again (the Tigers lose and the Royals win), the division will be tied going into Sunday.

DETROIT TIGERS (89-71):
Ian Kinsler, 2B
Torii Hunter, RF
Miguel Cabrera, 1B
Victor Martinez, DH
J.D. Martinez, LF
Nick Castellanos, 3B
Alex Avila, C
Andrew Romine, SS
Rajai Davis, CF

Pitcher: Kyle Lobstein, LHP (1-1, 3.38 ERA)

MINNESOTA TWINS (62-91):
Danny Santana, SS
Brian Dozier, 2B
Joe Mauer, 1B
Kennys Vargas, DH
Josmil Pinto, C
Oswaldo Arcia, RF
Eduardo Escobar, 3B
Chris Herrmann, LF
Aaron Hicks, CF

Pitcher: Ricky Nolasco, RHP (5-12, 5.47 ERA)
