Jack Flaherty limited the Rangers to three hits over 5 2/3 innings in the Tigers’ 3-0 shutout victory Saturday.

Flaherty got five strikeouts today, including four with a fastball that averaged 93.6 mph. This makes six straight outings in which he’s averaged 93 mph with his fastball, after he did that just three times in his first 11 starts. Not coincidentally, he has a 2.45 ERA in his last six starts, compared to 5.94 previously. With the win, Flaherty improved to 2-8 this season and 10-23 since joining the Tigers. He’ll likely face the Phillies on Friday.
