Matt Vierling will lead for the Detroit Tigers on Sunday night in Philadelphia. The Tigers (65-47) and Phillies (62-48) have split the first two games of the series and will play the rubber match in a nationally televised game at 7:10 p.m. at Citizens Bank Park.

President of baseball Scott Harris, as is his way, took it right to the wire Thursday, adding 41-year-old veteran starting pitcher Charlie Morton from the Baltimore Orioles. The Tigers also got cash back in the deal and sent left-handed pitcher Micah Ashman, who was recently promoted to Double-A Erie, to the Orioles.
