--- AT --- 06/22/2008 3:24 AM ET Verlander to take last hacks vs. PadresDetroit (35-39) at San Diego (32-44), Sunday, 4:05 p.m. ETBy Jason Beck / MLB.com SAN DIEGO -- Justin Verlander will get his last swings of the regular season on Sunday. Marcus Thames will get his latest. Though Verlander remains unbeaten in Interleague Play, having gone 7-0 in eight career regular-season starts against the National League, he remains hounded by his demons of never getting a hit. The competitor in him has a hard time looking at his line: 0-for-7, three sacrifice bunts and three strikeouts. If it's any consolation, Verlander has never faced a left-handed pitcher. That will change Sunday, when he goes up against Padres veteran southpaw Randy Wolf. At the very least, it should be different than going up against Giants power righty Tim Lincecum last Monday at San Francisco. More important for Verlander will be how he performs on the mound against a San Diego team that is starting to hit its way out of the funk that the Yankees helped put it in last week. Yet as Verlander's 2.10 career ERA and .201 batting average allowed to National League teams shows, he has a way of putting the Senior Circuit back into a slump.With a left-handed starter on the mound, meanwhile, Thames is all but guaranteed to be back in Detroit's starting lineup after hitting a go-ahead, two-run home run in Saturday night's 7-5 victory. And his hitting likely will have more effect on Verlander's outcome than Verlander's bat ever will.Saturday's 413-foot drive to the deepest part of PETCO Park continues Thames' power tear that has gained momentum since the Tigers hit the road against the National League West. He has homered in six of Detroit's last eight games, and nine of his 10 hits since June 7 have been home runs.
As the next day's pitcher, Verlander was inside charting the game when Thames hit his latest home run. "I've never seen anything like it, that's for sure," Verlander said. Few people have, of course. The way it's going, even Thames is having a hard time keeping down expectations. "We won another game," Thames said after Saturday's home run. "That's all I'm trying to do is help this team win. It was good to get [the series] tied up, and hopefully we can win the series."A win would give them not just a 4-2 Interleague road trip, but a 4-2 trip on the West Coast, something that isn't easy to do, regardless of the league. For a team out west for the third of four times in a span of two months, it would be a quality feat heading back home.

SD: LHP Randy Wolf (5-5, 4.16 ERA)Wolf told reporters after his last start Tuesday against the Yankees that he could count on one hand the number of pitches that he executed. Wolf, who was coming off a blissful run during which he allowed two or fewer runs in his previous five starts, allowed three home runs, two to Jason Giambi. TidbitsCurtis Granderson has a 10-game hitting streak, during which he's batting .361 (13-for-36). ... Placido Polanco's 11-game hitting streak ended Saturday with an 0-for-3 performance. He's 24-for-51 over his last 12 games. He is 4-for-6 in his career off Wolf. ... Miguel Cabrera is 10-for-19 lifetime against Wolf with four doubles, two home runs and six RBIs.On the Internet MLB.TV Gameday Audio• Gameday• Official game notesOn television• FSN-HD On radio• 97.1FM/1270AM Up next• Mon., June 23: Off-day
