On this episode: The Detroit Tigers continue to play winning baseball coming out of the All-Star break, taking two of three games against the Blue Jays in Toronto.

After that, Mark and Evan chat about manager Jim Leyland's induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame, along with the promotions of prospects Max Clark and Kevin McGonigle to High-A West Michigan. To wrap up, the guys break down an important stretch of games against American League Central rivals.
