Verlander allowed two runs on six hits and two walks over 6.1 innings while striking out 10 in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the White Sox.

Monday's rainout didn't seem to phase the Tigers ace at all, as the 34-year-old fired 66 of 102 pitches for strikes and could easily have had his second run ruled unearned after JaCoby Jones misplayed a Melky Cabrera bloop hit into what was called a double. Verlander's next outing is still set for Sunday at home against Boston, so Monday's postponement won't cost him a two-start week to begin the season.
