Detroit Tigers, Game 24: One thing I loved, one thing I didn't

The News' Tony Paul gives his quick takes on the Tigers' 12-4 loss to the Brewers on Tuesday: One thing I loved It was a tough first couple of games in The Show for third baseman Hao-Yu Lee in Boston, but he got his first two major-league hits in Sunday's game . Then he got his first hit at Comerica on Tuesday, and here's what I loved about that. It all started with his first at-bat, when he was blown away on three straight high fastballs by Brewers left-hander Kyle Harrison.

He swung at all three, and looked overmatched. The next time up, in the fourth inning with two on and nobody out, he swung and missed at another high fastball on the first pitch, but then he laid off the next one upstairs. Because he didn't offer at that one, Harrison then switched up the sequence and went with a fastball down in the zone, a much more manageable pitch for the hitter, and Lee was ready for it.

He smacked it for a single that loaded the bases. Small sample size so far for Lee, 23, who's up for the injured Zach McKinstry , and who knows the future holds. But becoming a useful or even a good major-leaguer is all about making adjustments.

Lee made a nice one there. Also, oh, Jake Rogers pitched a scoreless ninth inning, and even recorded a strikeout. That's cool.
