Tigers seek fourth consecutive home win

Apr 23, 2008 - 1:00 PM Texas (7-14) at Detroit (8-13) 7:05 pm EDT

DETROIT (Ticker) - The Detroit Tigers look to continue their winning ways at Comerica Park on Wednesday against the Texas Rangers in the second game of a three-game series.

The Tigers are aiming for their fourth consecutive home win since dropping the first six outings here.

In Tuesday's series opener, Justin Verlander picked up his first win of the season and was backed by three home runs in a 10-2 victory.

Kenny Rogers (1-3, 6.33 ERA) takes the hill for Detroit, which has won two straight.

Last time out, Rogers surrendered four runs through 6 2/3 innings for his first win this season at Toronto on Friday.

The veteran lefthander owns a 6-3 record with a 3.80 ERA against the Rangers, who drafted Rogers in 1982.

The Rangers will counter with Luis Mendoza (0-2, 9.00), who was rocked for seven runs in just three frames in an 11-3 loss at Boston on Friday.
