Volquez picked up his fourth win of the year against the Braves. He breezed through seven innings, needing just 83 pitches to get the job done. He did allow six hits while only striking out two batters.

Verlander showed signs of his old self on Friday night, allowing just one run over an eight inning complete game. The lone run came in the sixth inning when Adam Jones took Verlander deep. In total, Verlander struck out eight batters while allowing just four hits.

It was one of those games you were just waiting for from Chris Young. He surrendered two home runs over 4 2/3 innings pitched. The only good thing was that they were both solo shots and he did not allow any other runs.

Kennedy went just five innings, but only allowed one run while striking out six batters. With the way the Royals bullpen is set up, leaving with the lead after five innings should net the win.

It was a tough day for Ian Kinsler as he went hitless, despite the Tigers collecting 14 hits on Sunday.

In the sixth inning, Castellanos hit a three run shot off of Ricky Nolasco to tie the game up at five each.

It was a tough go around for Kris Medlen, who had a matchup against Felix Hernandez. Medlen allowed just one hit, a solo shot off the bat of Seth Smith. That was the difference maker as Hernandez went 7 2/3 while allowing no runs.

Despite the headline, there's still a lot to like here from J.D. Martinez. He went 0-for-2, but he did walk twice and score two runs. On the season, he's still hitting .433 with one home run.

Castellanos hit a big two-run home run in the eighth inning to give the Tigers some insurance runs. Overall, Castellanos went 3-for-4 with four RBI and two runs scored.

Francisco Rodriguez recorded his first perfect inning of the season en route to his second save of the year. It's a good sign that it looks like his Opening Day struggles are a thing of the past.
