Coming into the game, McKenzie had a 4.92 ERA in his career. He has always been great against the Tigers, however, with a 1.20 ERA in three starts against Detroit.
He has now pitched 23 innings against the Tigers, allowing only 2 runs on 10 hits, with 29 strikeouts.
It is safe to say, he has thoroughly dominated them over his young career so far.
