Bonderman, Tigers seek series sweep vs. Nationals

Jun 20, 2007 - 1:30 PM Detroit (41-29) at Washington (30-41) 7:05 pm EDT

WASHINGTON (Ticker) -- The Detroit Tigers will try to complete a three-game series sweep of the Washington Nationals on Wednesday.

Sean Casey drove in a season-high four runs and Magglio Ordonez went 3-for-3 and added two RBI for the Tigers in Tuesday's 15-1 triumph.

Taking the mound Wednesday for Detroit is Jeremy Bonderman (7-0, 3.92 ERA), who is looking to become the first Tigers pitcher to win eight starts in a row since Dave Mlicki accomplished the feat from August 6-September 13, 1999.

In his last outing, the hard-throwing righthander gave up five runs in six innings in a 12-8 triumph over the Philadelphia Phillies last Friday.

Bonderman has posted an impressive 11-0 record in his last 19 outings, including three playoff starts. His last setback was on September 10 at Minnesota. Bonderman is making his first career appearance against the Nationals.

Washington sends Mike Bacsik (1-4, 4.59) to the hill. Bacsik lasted just 4 1/3 frames en route to his fourth straight defeat in Friday's 7-2 defeat at Toronto.

The 6-3 lefthander limited Detroit to four hits through seven innings for a win as a member of the Texas Rangers on August 4, 2004.
