--RHP Fausto Carmona pitched into the seventh inning, allowing two runs, but still got tagged with the loss Saturday as the Indians lost to the Tigers 4-0. The Indians also lost 1-0 on Friday. It's the first time the Indians have been shut out in consecutive games since the White Sox blanked them on July 21 and 22, 2004. It's the first time in 44 years, since May 28-29, 1965, that the Tigers have shut out the Indians in consecutive games.
--RHP Rafael Betancourt Saturday made his 357th career appearance with the Indians. That ties him with George Uhle (1919-28, 1936) for 10th place on the club's all-time list for games pitched. BY THE NUMBERS: 0-6 -- Indians' record at home on Fridays and Saturdays this season.
QUOTE TO NOTE: "We can't give into it. If you give in to it, the game will beat you down." -- Manager Eric Wedge, after the last-place Indians were shut out in consecutive games by Detroit.
