vs.
Jason Johnson (5-7, 3.87) vs. Hideo Nomo (5-7, 6.80). Exhibit A in our series Why Won-Loss Records Can Be Misleading, though both pitchers have been knocked around lately. The Rays have proved the perfect slump-buster, losers of ten consecutive, though the Tiger bullpen might be a little short today after German and Rodney each pitched three innings.
Could this be one of Johnson's last Tiger starts?
