Meet the Detroit Tigers' Spencer Turnbull, perhaps MLB's unluckiest starting pitcher
The Detroit Tigers stink, and recent history shows they aren't going to win or score much Thursday afternoon against Seattle because Spencer Turnbull is on the mound.
The first game on Thursday's MLB schedule is quite meaningless as the Seattle Mariners visit the Detroit Tigers with a from Comerica Park. The Mariners are last in the AL West and will continue the longest playoff drought in baseball (last in 2001), while the Tigers have the worst record in the majors and could end up historically bad at home.
