| GDT: 8/24/09 - DET (65-58) AT LAA (74-48) - 10:05 p.m. ET --- AT --- Thomas hopes to cut down on K'sDetroit (65-58) at Los Angeles (74-48), 10:05 p.m. ETBy Adam Loberstein / MLB.com08/23/09 7:34 PM ET OAKLAND -- Clete Thomas hasn't been making much contact as of late. He's stuck out at least once in 10 of his past 11 games, recording seven multi-strikeout showings over that span. Thomas has been getting hits when the Tigers have needed them, though. "He needs to shorten up," said manager Jim Leyland, whose Tigers open a three-game set against the Angels on Monday, "but he has knocked in the winning run in our last two wins."Leyland, of course, would like to see more hits and fewer strikeouts from his young outfielder. Leyland said Thomas has been shortening his swing one day, then lengthening it again the next."He might strike out three times or he might hit two home runs," Leyland said. "He's a young player. You never know."Thomas has been choking up a bit, but his hands are still drifting with his stride. The Tigers' offense has bigger problems to deal with, though. "We have a bunch of guys that need to step up," he said. "[Thomas' strikeouts are] not our problem."Maybe Thomas can be part of the solution. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pitching matchupDET: RHP Justin Verlander (13-7, 3.29 ERA)Verlander crossed the 200-strikeout mark with 10 in eight innings against the Mariners on Wednesday. A three-run fifth and a lack of run support, however, saddled him with the loss for the second time in his past three outings. He has split a pair of decisions against the Angels, including one where he struck out seven in eight scoreless innings on June 5 at Comerica Park. In the other, he surrendered seven runs in five innings. LAA: RHP Jered Weaver (13-4, 3.89 ERA) Weaver is coming off his second career shutout and fourth complete game, a seven-hit blanking of the Indians on Wednesday night. He was in command from the start, striking out two in the first inning, but became efficient as the game went on. The shutout erased the bitter taste of his worst outing of the season in Baltimore. Weaver had a seven-inning no-decision against the Tigers in April, yielding three earned runs. He's 2-1 with a 7.08 ERA in four career outings against Detroit and is 8-1 with a 2.76 ERA in 13 home assignments this season. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tidbits...Leyland on drawing Weaver and John Lackey in the first two games of the series in Anaheim: "Yeah, that's the big leagues," he joked. ... Miguel Cabrera hit his 200th home run Sunday. He's the fifth Venezuelan-born player to accomplish the feat, joining Tony Armas (251), Bobby Abreu (252), teammate Magglio Ordonez (275) and Andres Galarraga (399). ... Detroit starting pitchers had combined to go 3-1 with a 2.90 ERA in their past nine games entering Sunday. ... Triple-A Toledo's Mike Hessman has homered in back-to-back games, giving him 21 on the season. It's his sixth season in a row with 20-plus homers, and 11th in 13 seasons as a pro.------------------------------------------------------------------------ To track MLB play-by-play, to help post GDT outcomes: http://m.mlb.com/scores/ On the Internet MLB.TV Gameday Audio • Gameday • Official game notes On television • , On radio• • XM Channel Schedule • Direct TV Extra Innings Schedule ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Up next (Probable Pitchers)• Tuesday: Tigers ( Jarrod Washburn, 8-7, 3.18 ERA) at Angels ( John Lackey, 8-6, 4.00 ERA), 10:05 p.m. ET
