Joe Jimenez, Shane Greene Blow Lead For Loss
6 years agoThe Detroit Tigers bullpen fell down on the job Monday as Joe Jimenez and Shane Greene combined to allow four earned runs and blow the game for the Tigers. Jimenez entered in the seventh with a four-run lead and two men on, one of which scored. He wasn't charged with that run, but he then allowed three more in the following frame to tie it up. Greene cleaned up Jimenez's mess to close out the eighth but allowed what ended up being the winning run on a Jed Lowrie homer in the ninth. Both Jimenez and Greene have had solid years at the back end of the bullpen, but this was an ugly one.
