MINNEAPOLIS — Mickey Lolich probably just rolled his eyes.
Will Vest started his second game in this series against the Twins. No Tigers’ pitcher has started multiple games in a series since Lolich pitched two complete games against the Yankees in the Bronx on June 21 and June 24, 1973.
Lolich totaled 14.1 innings in those two games (one rain-shortened, the other he got walked-off). Not quite the same for Vest, who pitched the first inning of a pair of bullpen games, totaling 1.2 innings.
