Tigers' Buck Farmer whiffs 11 over 6-plus scoreless innings

Detroit Tigers pitcher Buck Farmer struck out 11 Chicago White Sox over 6 1/3 scoreless innings in Saturday's 4-3 win.

What It Means:

Making what was supposed to be a spot start as the team's 26th man for the doubleheader, Farmer may have forced the club to make a tough decision with his dominant performance. He gave up just three hits, all singles, while walking two over his 6 1/3 innings. Assuming the Tigers find reason to keep him around, Farmer might get another shot at the White Sox when the two clubs meet next weekend.

Farmer currently holds a 47.8 percent strikeout rate and 8.7 percent walk rate in the majors.
