Justin Verlander struck out 12 over six innings, but he allowed four home runs to his former team, as the Detroit Tigers beat the Houston Astros 6-3 on Sunday to snap a six game losing streak.  John Hicks, Jeimer Candelario, Niko Goodrum, and Jim Adduci all went deep for the Tigers.  Detroit is off until Friday because of the All Star Game on Tuesday night in Washington.  The Tigers return from the break with a three game series against Boston at Comerica Park.
