Debut for Lobstein as a starter. 25 years old. He did well in Toledo and in relief for the Tigers a few days back. Had himself a nice first inning. 1 2 3, down go the Yanks in the 1st.
i'm calling for a tigers victory. kuroda has never beaten the tigers, and the yankees' defense today is sponsored by tim horton's.
