Yankees can't overcome Tigers, lose game outside their division.

Under the lights of Comerica Park, the Yankees were defeated by the Tigers 8-4, as 28,812 fans at Comerica went home reasonably happy. Curtis Granderson homered in 2 at-bats to give the club a jolt.

Roy Oswalt (2-3) was roughed up in defeat, as he only pitched 3 innings, giving up 5 runs on 6 hits.

The two teams finish the series with a day game at Comerica Park, with Phil Hughes (1-0, 1.93) set to face the Tigers' ace, Justin Verlander (2-5, 4.57).

Mark Teixeira looks to build on his 11-game hitting streak.

The Yankees claimed SP Doug Davis off waivers from the Milwaukee Brewers.
