The Tigers have lit up this September with youth and defense and pitching. Six of their nine starters last night are no older than 24. They’ve allowed just 65 runs this month, fewer than any team other than the Padres. Once again, A.J. Hinch assembled 27 outs from a group of unheralded pitchers, not a single one making even $800,000 this year.
