The good guys outhit the hosts, but were plagued by LOBsters while Kieder Montero coughed up five runs over six innings to earn his seventh loss of the season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Making his first appearance for the Motor City Kitties since last season on Saturday evening is right-hander Jackson Jobe, who will be returning from Tommy John surgery after 14-plus months on the shelf. The freshly turned 24-year-old actually faced the Giants the last time he pitched in the big leagues, surrendering three runs on seven hits (one home run) and three walks while striking out four over 4 2\/3 frames for a no-decision in a 4-3 win at Comerica Park.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Jobe\u2019s rehab process stretched across five games in four levels of the minors \u2014 rookie ball to Double-A \u2014 resulting in a 1.76 ERA and 2.35 FIP over 15 1\/3 innings of work, giving up 14 hits and four walks while striking out 17, plus one each of a hit-by-pitch, balk and wild pitch.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">San Francisco, on the other hand, has fellow righty Landen Roupp taking the mound for his 23rd appearance this season. The 27-year-old has struggled over his last two games, posting an astronomical 9.72 ERA along with an ugly 5.85 FIP over 8 1\/3 innings, allowing 10 hits (one home run) and seven walks while striking out seven and hitting a batter over that span, earning a pair of losses in the process.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Speaking of losses, Roupp\u2019s 10 recorded defeats this season are tied for the National League lead as of Friday night.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Here is a quick look at how the two hurlers matchup for Game 2 on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Detroit Tigers (56-60) vs. San Francisco Giants (49-67)<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Time (ET): 7:15 p.m.<br \/>Place: Oracle Park, San Francisco, California<br \/>SB Nation Site: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mccoveychronicles.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">McCovey Chronicles<\/a><br \/>Media: FOX, Tigers Radio Network<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Game 117: RHP Jackson Jobe (0-0, 0.00 ERA) vs. RHP Landen Roupp (7-10, 4.34 ERA)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Detroit Tigers dropped the series opener to the San Francisco Giants on Friday night, 5-2, at Oracle&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":427399,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[108282,101,103,102,104,106,105],"class_list":["post-427398","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-francisco","tag-detroit-tigers-game-information","tag-san-francisco","tag-san-francisco-headlines","tag-san-francisco-news","tag-sf","tag-sf-headlines","tag-sf-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/427398","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=427398"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/427398\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/427399"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=427398"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=427398"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=427398"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
