It's getting even worse for the Detroit Tigers. They got blanked again tonight.
Not only have they lost the first seven games of the season, they haven't even scored more than 5 runs in a game yet. The Tigers have only achieved this feat two times since the introduction of league divisions in 1969. In 2002, it took them 11 games to manage getting more than 5 home-plate touches. They finished that year with 55 wins and 39 games out of first place in the Central Division. In 1982, it took them 12 games to reach the 6 run plateau. That team actually finished two games above .500 and just twelve games back.
Hey, at least their bats aren't as sad (re: bad) as the Giants who have a team OPS of .572. Nick Punto had a .562 OPS last year. Imagine a lineup of alternating between Jason Kendalls and Nick Puntos. That's how bad the Giants lineup is right now.
