PITCHING MATCHUP: Tigers LH Daniel Norris (2-5, 4.40 ERA) vs. Indians RH Zach Plesac (2-2, 2.56)
Norris remains in search of his first victory since May 12, although he deserved a better fate last time out after registering a quality start with two runs allowed over six innings in a no-decision at Pittsburgh. The 26-year-old also had a no-decision with five innings of two-run ball in his previous turn at Kansas City, which came on the heels of a three-start losing streak. Ramirez is 4-for-13 versus Norris, who owns a 3-1 record and 3.54 ERA in his career against the Indians.
Plesac is coming off a stellar outing, pitching seven innings for the third time in five starts and permitting one run on two hits to beat Texas. The lone mistake for the 24-year-old rookie, the nephew of former major league reliever Dan Plesac, was allowing a solo homer - his sixth blast given up over the past four outings. Plesac has surrendered two runs or fewer in four of his five turns and allowed only 21 hits across 31 2/3 innings overall while holding batters to a .191 average.
