Tyler Nevin singled with one out in the seventh inning. Detroit would later tie the game 1-1 in the frame, leaving Wheeler with a no-decision. It was quite a bounce back from the 33-year-old right-hander, who allowed seven runs in just 3.2 frames in his last outing against the Nationals. Wheeler's been dominant at times this season, though he's lacked consistency. His ERA is now at 3.91 with a 1.12 WHIP and 87:17 K:BB through 13 starts (76 innings) this season.
