CLEVELAND -- Justin Verlanders superb outing couldnt prevent the Detroit Tigers
from falling further behind in the AL Central race.
Michael Schofield Jersey .Verlander allowed
one hit in seven innings -- Jason Kipnis leadoff single in the sixth -- but the
Tigers couldnt take advantage of an injury to Cleveland starter Carlos Carrasco
two pitches in and lost 1-0 in 10 innings on Saturday.Detroit, which managed
four hits off eight relievers, trails AL Central-leading Cleveland by eight
games and remained three games back in the wild-card race.Its definitely
frustrating when they had to use the bullpen since the beginning of the game and
we dont score a single run, designated hitter Victor Martinez said. Its bad.
Were running out of time and losing tonight definitely wont help
anything.Detroit has lost 13 of 14 to the Indians and been outscored 91-40 in
the season series.Obviously, this is a tough team loss, Verlander said. This
late in the year, when every game is so important, it hurts. One run was all
they needed in the end.There are so many variables when you lose, but you do
feel the pressure at this point of the season because you know you need to win,
Verlander added. Even though I feel good about the way I pitched, it
stinks.Miguel Cabrera had two hits and needs one to reach 2,500. Detroit
advanced just one runner to third base.Carrasco, the Indians No. 2 starting
pitcher, will miss the rest of the season after breaking his right hand when hit
by a line drive off the bat of Detroits Ian Kinsler in the first
inning.Cleveland used a major league record nine pitchers in a shutout of nine
or more innings since at least 1913.We have to find a way to score, obviously,
manager Brad Ausmus said. I felt like we couldve been a little better -- not for
a lack of effort -- but to me, this one is more frustrating than last
night.Indians manager Terry Francona and a team trainer immediately went to the
mound after Carrasco was hit. The trainer worked with Carrasco to get the
feeling back in his hand for several moments before the pitcher walked off the
field. Carrasco was sent for X-rays, which revealed the fracture.Jeff Manship
replaced Carrasco after the infield hit. Carrasco missed six weeks earlier this
season with a strained left hamstring, also sustained against the Tigers.Jose
Ramirez hit a winning single with the bases loaded in the 10th against Justin
Wilson (4-5).Andrew Miller (8-1), Clevelands eighth reliever, pitched the final
two innings and completed a four-hitter. Manship, Kyle Crockett, Cody Anderson,
Zach McAllister, Perci Garner, Bryan Shaw and Cody Allen preceded
Miller.TRAINERS ROOMTigers: 3B Nick Castellanos (broken left hand) began taking
batting practice in Lakeland, Florida, on Saturday and could be activated off
the disabled list early next week.Indians: OF Lonnie Chisenhall (strained
abdominal muscle) was announced as a pinch hitter in the ninth inning but was
removed following a pitching change.UP NEXTLHP Daniel Norris (2-2) is to start
for Detroit on Sunday and RHP Trevor Bauer (11-7) for Cleveland. Norris had a
career-high 11 strikeouts in 6 1/3 innings Monday against Minnesota. Bauer is
3-2 with a 6.64 ERA in eight career starts against the Tigers.

.C. -- Rodney Hood connected from all over the court while freshman Jabari
Parker was busy swatting shots and scoring in transition.Ten-man Liverpool
grabbed a 2-1 win at Crystal Palace on Sunday, extending the hosts woeful run of
form thanks to a controversial last-minute penalty. Emmanuel Adebayor had hit
the bar in the first-half and Joe Ledley put Palace ahead with a low strike from
the edge of the box shortly after the break. Palace 1-2 Liverpool Read our match
report However, a slip from Palace keeper Alex McCarthy handed Roberto Firmino a
chance to level the scores and, after Alberto Moreno had cannoned a shot into
the woodwork, substitute Christian Benteke won and scored an injury-time
penalty. Here, we examine five talking points from the game…Was it a penalty?
Should Liverpools injury-time, match-winning penalty have been awarded? It was a
decision hotly debated after the final whistle. Should Liverpools injury-time
penalty against Crystal Palace have been awarded? Jamie Carragher and Thierry
Henry debated the decision With just seconds left on the clock, Benteke appeared
to be heading to the touchline, before Damien Delaney slid in, tried to pull out
of his tackle, clipped the Belgian with his knee and sent the Liverpool striker
tumbling.At first it appeared referee Andre Marriner was not convinced but
following an apparent intervention from his linesman, awarded the spot-kick,
which Benteke cooly converted. Christian Benteke scores from the penalty spot
Asked afterwards whether it was a foul, Benteke was diplomatic. I think he
touched me, otherwise I wouldnt have gone down, he told Sky Sports. The referee
knows better than us and he took the right decision.Sky Sports pundit Jamie
Carragher, was convinced. As soon as I saw it I thought it was a penalty, he
said. Liverpool players dont dive! It was a stupid decision to dive in and
[Delaney] just clipped with his right knee Christian Bentekes left ankle and its
a penalty. I dont think its a debate. Crystal Palace manager Alan Pardew
disputed the last minute penalty and felt it was very harsh on his team But an
angry Alan Pardew felt his team had been hard done by. If the linesman has
called it for that knee touch on the foot, in the last seconds of the game, when
hes pulling out of it, I think thats harsh, said the Palace boss. Delaney
shouldnt go to ground and he knows that, he pulls out of it. If you give a
penalty for that in the last seconds, blimey, thats a bit tough.Despite the
circumstances, the goal ended Bentekes 715 minute goal drought in all
competitions and Carragher was pleased for the Liverpool forward. Hes a
big-money signing and it hasnt quite worked out for him. But hes someone I look
at and I sort of feel for him. Hes conducted himself really well off the pitch.
And that will do him a world of good. Christian Benteke felt the referee was
correct in awarding the late penalty at Selhurst Park Liverpool adapt after
Milner red cardThe was no debate about James Milners red card, though.
Kyzir White Jersey. It was just his second
ever Premier League dismissal - the first coming against West Brom in October
2012 - but he left referee Andre Marriner little choice but to issues two yellow
cards for late tackles on Yohan Cabaye and Wilfried Zaha.At 1-0 down, Liverpool
could easily have folded after being reduced to 10 men but a combination of good
fortune, a formation switch and a drop-off in performance from the hosts led to
the Reds grabbing all three points. James Milner fouls Wilfried Zaha before
being sent-off Klopp switched formation to 3-4-2, following Milners sending off
and, while he conceded that left his team occasionally exposed down their right
flank, he was keen to maintain an attacking impetus. The gamble paid off. A
mis-kick from goalkeeper Alex McCarthy presented Roberto Firmino with a simple
one-on-one to level the scores before Bentekes late penalty.It was an incredible
performance from all of us, especially after the red card, said Dejan Lovren. We
stepped up and showed our skills and our character and I think it was a deserved
win today.Palaces poor run goes on Alan Pardew launched his coat into the dugout
in frustration after seeing Benteke snatch all three points with the final kick
of the game. Its easy to understand his annoyance.Palace are on the longest
winless run in the Premier League (12 games) and, after losing their fifth home
game in a row, have slumped from fifth to 15th. Palace slump Crystal Palace have
gone 12 Premier League matches without a win (D4 L8), the current longest
winless run in the top-flight. For the second game in a row injury-time goals
have denied his side valuable points but Thierry Henry was unimpressed by
Palaces second-half display.In the second half Liverpool played way better with
10 men, Henry told Sky Sports. Palace became a bit timid, fragile, lethargic,
passive at times and Liverpool deserved to win the game. In the last 30 minutes
Liverpool controlled the game with 10 men.Liverpool end Selhurst streak Jurgen
Klopp says Liverpool fully deserved their win after fighting back from a goal
down and losing James Milner to a red card Liverpool will hope Sundays victory
ends a wretched spell of form at Selhurst Park.This was the Reds first league
win at Palace since December 1997 and the Eagles had gone into the game having
won six of their last 11 meetings with Liverpool, including the previous three
Premier League clashes.Before that trio of Palace wins, the London club held
Liverpool to a memorable 3-3 draw, which was a major hammer blow to the Reds
league title hopes in May 2014. Liverpools players and their travelling support
will take fonder memories from their latest visit to south London. Liverpools
set-piece problems return Crystal Palaces Joe Ledley celebrates scoring the
first goal of the game While victory over Palace keeps Liverpool in the hunt for
a European qualifying spot, there was a familiar problem in defence which wont
have escaped Jurgen Klopps attention.Joe Ledleys opener came from Liverpools
failure to clear a corner, meaning for the ninth time this season theyve
conceded from that type of set piece. Only Swansea have conceded more goals from
corners (10).Of course, Crystal Palace are specialists from dead-ball
situations. No Premier League side has scored more goals from corners this
season than Palace, with their total of 10 level with Spurs. But Klopp will be
keen to address this recurring defensive theme.Did you think Liverpool should
