CLEVELAND -- Miguel Cabreras head shook in anger after he was ejected in the sixth inning on Tuesday night.The call on the field could have caused Cabreras outburst, but his frustration might have also been centered around another looming loss for Detroit to Cleveland.That didnt help (the situation), being down seven at the time, playing the Indians, manager Brad Ausmus said of Cabrera. Its the second game of the series, we lost the first one, none of that helped.After the 12-1 defeat, the Tigers have lost to the Indians in each of the 11 meetings between the teams this season, as Cleveland has outscored Detroit 77-24.Ausmus doesnt feel that theres much of a mystery involved when looking at the 11 straight games his team has lost to Cleveland this season.Theres nothing baffling, Ausmus said. Its not like we havent played good baseball. Theyve just played better.While the Tigers are cognizant of their struggles against the Indians, Ausmus feels theyll forget their failures before Wednesdays series finale.When we take the field tomorrow, I promise you those guys are not thinking of the previous game, Ausmus said. Its a new game. Anyone can win on any given day.The play when Cabrera was ejected came in the sixth, when he grounded to third baseman Jose Ramirez, who threw to first for the out. Cabrera stood in the box and did not run to the base, as he thought the ball hit off his foot and was therefore foul.Ausmus came out of the dugout to argue. The umpires briefly met and the out call stood. Still carrying his bat, Cabrera angrily protested the ruling and was ejected for the eighth time in his career.While Ausmus said the umpires explained to him that they simply didnt see the ball hit Cabreras leg, he found that the missed call could actually have a positive effect on the slugger and the Tigers.It was actually a silver-lining, Ausmus said. We have an early game tomorrow. He probably wouldve been out of the game anyways.Anibal Sanchez (5-9) was forced to start for the Tigers after he was relegated to the bullpen, as previously scheduled starter Jordan Zimmermann was placed on the 15-day DL with a strained neck on Monday.Over just 4 1/3 innings, Sanchez allowed seven runs, five hits and four walks, allowing his ERA against Cleveland to balloon to 10.13 in 18 2/3 innings this season.Carlos Carrasco (5-2) allowed just one run and three hits while striking out five over six innings. Detroits lone run came on an RBI single from Victor Martinez after Cabrera was ejected in the sixth.Lonnie Chisenhall accounted for two hits and an RBI off Sanchez, before finishing the game 4 for 5 with two singles, two doubles and three RBI. Since June 21, Chisenhall is 23 for 54 with four doubles, three home runs and 13 RBI.ANOTHER ALL-STAR?Cabrera was the lone member of the Tigers named to the American League All-Star team on Tuesday night, but he could be joined by Ian Kinsler, who is up for the final vote.Vote for him, Ausmus said of the second baseman. He deserves it.TRAINERS ROOMTigers: Zimmermann will visit a specialist about his neck injury. ... LHP Daniel Norris (strained right oblique) was placed on the 15-day DL on Tuesday.UP NEXTTigers: Rookie RHP Michael Fulmer (8-2, 2.17 ERA) has allowed one run or less in each of his last eight starts in which hes 6-1 with a 0.53 ERA.Indians: RHP Josh Tomlin (9-1, 3.21 ERA) has won all three starts against the Tigers this season.Kansas City Royals Pro Shop .

Cheap Royals Jerseys .C. -- Calgarys Kevin Koe did it the hard way again.MANHATTAN, Kan. -- Elijah Lee and the rest of the Kansas State defense trudged to the locker room at halftime against Texas Tech on Saturday night fortunate to be ahead.Then, the Wildcats made a solemn vow.Second half, the veteran linebacker said, with sternness to his voice, we had the mindset that they cant do to us what they did to us in the first half.They proceeded to shut down Patrick Mahomes and the Red Raiders over the final 30 minutes, holding on for a 44-38 victory highlighted by touchdowns in all three phases of the game.Texas Tech only scored 10 points in the second half, seven coming in the games final minute.We came together as a defensive unit and we were like, `We have to eliminate all the big plays, Kansas State cornerback Duke Shelley said. This game was on us.Mahomes, despite an ailing shoulder, still threw for 504 yards and two touchdowns while running for three more scores. But the Red Raiders junior quarterback also threw a pick that was returned for seven and failed to convert three fourth downs in the second half.He also failed to get off a throw to the end zone from midfield on the final play of the games.Hes a tough kid, said Texas Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury, who acknowledged Mahomes did not practice fully this week. We wouldnt put him out there if he couldnt handle it.Still, the result was the 196th win for Kansas States Bill Snyder, and it came in his 300th game leading the Wildcats. It also came day after the Hall of Fame coachs 77th birthday.Not that he was in much of a mood to enjoy it.Snyder was terse in his postgame comments, particularly when asked about burning through his three timeouts in the second half. But he was proud of the way his defense performed in the second half.They got a ton of yardage, Snyder said. We put them in some fourth down situations, which was good, because they didnt convert any.Indeed, the teams waged a back-and-forth offensive showdown in the first half with Pringles TD return givinng the Wildcats a 31-28 advantage with 1:31 left before the break.dddddddddddd But it wasnt until the Red Raiders chose to go for it on fourth down -- twice -- in the third quarter that the game pivoted.The first came inside the Kansas State 5 on the first possession of the second half, when a field goal would have tied the game. The second came later in the third quarter, when a sack gave the Wildcats the ball at the Texas Tech 47 -- and set them up for a touchdown that made it 38-31.Trying to be aggressive, Kinsbury said. We felt like we had a chance there with the play calls that we liked. They made a good play on the ball, just didnt go our way.The Red Raiders finally did punt on fourth-and-1 at their own 34 early in the fourth quarter, but their defense allowed Kansas State to go 71 yards for a field goal that made it a two-possession game.Texas Tech failed to convert another fourth down a few minutes later, the Wildcats added one more field goal, and not even a late touchdown by the Red Raiders was enough to change the outcome.GUT PUNCHPringle was playfully -- maybe? -- punched in the gut by teammate Dominique Heath while celebrating his kickoff return touchdown. He crumpled to the ground and lay there for a moment, and said afterward that the uppercut knocked the wind out of him. Im feeling good now, he said.THE TAKEAWAYTexas Tech: The Red Raiders can score with anybody, but they also can allow anybody to score with them.
