DETROIT — The way Jonathan Schoop was buzzing around the ball field Monday, playing both games of the doubleheader against Cleveland, you’d never know he was 30 years old and grinding through a miserable start to his 10th big-league season.
When the long day ended, Schoop, who came into the game batting under .200 and in a 3-for-24 skid, produced six straight hits, scored three times and knocked in one.
“I know the team needed that,” Schoop said between games. “I know for a fact that if I get going, we’re going to win a lot of games.”
