KANSAS CITY, Mo. — This is going in the wrong direction.
The Tigers, at the most inopportune time, lost their third straight game and their sixth out of seven, a dispiriting 5-2 defeat against the Kansas City Royals on Aug. 21, at Kauffman Stadium.
Slip-sliding away.
They are suddenly six games under .500 (61-67) for the first time since July 31. At game's end, they were six games back in the Central Division and 2.5 back in the wild-card race.
The Tigers' hitters couldn't do anything against Royals' lefty Noah Cameron. He shut them down over seven innings at Comerica Park on July 24. And he did it again Friday over five innings. He was at 85 pitches and he was coming off a complete-game, two-hit shutout in Anaheim, which is why his outing was stopped after five.
