Indians starter Justin Masterson, who had his scheduled start pushed back from Saturday to Sunday, took the mound in Detroit. He left with a defeat.

Masterson fell to 8-5 on the season as he's now lost two straight and three of his last four outings. He allowed four earned runs on six hits and three walks over seven innings Sunday against the Tigers. Don Kelly did the most damage with his three-run homer off Masterson in the sixth inning.

The Cleveland ace struck out four over 105 pitches and his ERA is at 3.68. He's given up 17 earned runs over his last four outings spanning 25 1/3 innings and needs to settle down for the Tribe. He'll get that chance when he next starts Saturday against Washington.
