GDT: 8/19/12 - DET (64-56) VS BAL (65-55) - 1:05 p.m. ET

Tigers: RHP Doug Fister (7-7, 3.24 ERA)

Fister didn't get much help from his defense in his last start, with Detroit's two errors in the third against Minnesota costing him four unearned runs. But he refocused to go eight innings, allowing just five hits to pick up his seventh win.



Orioles: LHP Wei-Yin Chen (11-7, 3.70 ERA)

Although he allowed a career-high nine hits on Tuesday, Chen scattered them over six innings to surrender only one run. He has posted 13 quality starts in 24 outings this season, but has allowed five or more runs five times.
