Drew Anderson allowed three runs in 5 1/3 innings and took the loss against the Twins on Tuesday.

Anderson gave up four hits, walked three and struck out four. He fell to 4-6 with the loss. Anderson pitched well while allowing one run in the first five innings before the game turned when he allowed a two-run home run to Kody Clemens in the sixth inning. He now has a 2.97 ERA with 27 strikeouts in 33 1/3 innings over his last seven starts since the Tigers moved him into the rotation in early August. Anderson is lined up to face the Blue Jays on the road next Monday and could be in for a two-start week.
