Austin Jackson went 2-for-4 with a triple, a walk and two runs scored versus the Indians on Thursday. Jackson hasn't been hitting very well at all for the surging Tigers, but there won't be any taking him out of the leadoff spot. It is disturbing the way he's regressing in the strikeout department. He had a 42/27 K/BB ratio in 49 games over the first three months, but since the beginning of July, he's at 44/9 in 33 games.
