History

Historical Context

After Justin Verlander captured the 2011 AL MVP, Cy Young and a 19-9 record with 269 strikeouts, his shoulder strain that summer knocked Detroit from first to third in the AL Central, echoing later setbacks like his 2014 shoulder soreness that again derailed the Tigers. The loss also opened the race for the Chicago White Sox.
