DETROIT -- Mike Pelfrey described his performance as terrible over and over in a harsh postgame assessment that few would disagree with.Pelfrey allowed four runs in the first inning and didnt make it out of the second Saturday night, putting the Detroit Tigers in an early hole in their 8-4 loss to the Kansas City Royals.I felt like Id never thrown the ball before. That was embarrassing, Pelfrey said. I didnt have any idea where the ball was going, as everyone could probably tell.Ian Kinsler homered for Detroit, but the Tigers were facing a significant deficit before they even came up to bat for the first time. Pelfrey (2-9) allowed five runs, four hits and four walks in 1 2/3 innings.I was terrible. Didnt get ahead, and half the guys I faced either got walks or hits. I was terrible, Pelfrey said. This games on me. I put the bullpen in a bad spot, I put the offense in a bad spot, and I take full responsibility for it. I was terrible. I got what I deserved.Salvador Perez singled, doubled, scored a run and drew two of Kansas Citys seven walks. Every hitter in the Royals lineup scored exactly once except right fielder Paulo Orlando.Danny Duffy (5-1) allowed four runs and six hits in 6 1/3 innings for Kansas City. He struck out seven and walked one.Pelfrey actually retired the first batter of the game, but the next six Kansas City hitters reached base. Alex Gordon opened the scoring with a bases-loaded single, and Pelfrey then hit Orlando to force in another run. Cheslor Cuthberts RBI single made it 3-0, and Christian Colon brought home another run with a groundout.After allowing a single and two walks in the second, Pelfrey was pulled with the bases loaded and two outs. Reliever Dustin Molleken immediately threw a wild pitch that made it 5-1.We were hoping to get some momentum after winning yesterday in our first game back, but the expression is that momentum is your next starting pitcher and Pelf just had an off day, Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said.Kinslers two-run homer in the third cut the lead in half, but the Royals added three more runs in the fifth on RBI singles by Colon, Jarrod Dyson and Eric Hosmer.Royals closer Wade Davis pitched a perfect ninth inning in his return from a strained forearm. Davis was activated from the disabled list before the game, and Kansas City went ahead and used him in a non-save situation.WAITING HIM OUTThe Royals arent a team that walks much, but they adjusted when it became clear Pelfrey was having control problems.We put in some good at-bats there in the first inning, Hosmer said. A lot of guys toned down the aggressiveness a little bit, wanted to see some pitches.TRANSACTIONThe Tigers optioned OF Steven Moya to Triple-A Toledo after the game.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Jordan Scarlett scored for the sixth consecutive game, Antonio Callaway had the first rushing touchdown of his career and No. 14 Florida used a dominant defensive effort to beat Georgia 24-10 on Saturday.Playing just their second game in four weeks, the Gators won their third straight in the Worlds Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party. It was Floridas 21st victory against the Bulldogs in the last 27 years.Coach Jim McElwain should raise a glass to his defense after the latest one.The Gators (6-1, 4-1 Southeastern Conference) pressured freshman quarterback Jacob Eason early and often and stuffed Nick Chubb on just about every carry. The unit forced seven three-and-outs and stopped two fourth-down plays on Georgias final two drives.Defensively, what do you say? McElwain asked.The biggest mismatch was up front, with Floridas defense controlling the line of scrimmage. Thats nothing new for Georgia (4-4, 2-4), whose O-line has been a target for criticism all season. The Bulldogs lost for the fourth time in their last five games, and first-year coach Kirby Smart fell to 1-6 in the series as a player and coach.McElwain improved to 2-0, including a win against his former colleague and close friend . Smart and McElwain worked at Alabama (2008-11) together, and the Tide went 48-6 and claimed two national championships with them as coordinators.Florida did nothing spectacular offensively, managing 231 yards on a warm, sun-soaked afternoon.People pick this team apart quite a bit and this and that, McElwain said. Guys, this is a good football team. The Florida Gators are a good team, all right. Ill go with these guys against anybody and well figure out a way to get it done, and thats the way they are in that locker room.The Gators scored three touchdowns thanks partly to solid field position -- Smart called his punt unit a thrill a minute -- and that proved to be plenty for the defense.The Bulldogs finished with 164 yards, including 21 rushing. Chubb had 20 yards on nine carries.Its just frustrating, Chubb said. We couldnt really get things going. I felt like it was always three-and-out and we werentt getting in a rhythm or anything, so it feels pretty bad.ddddddddddddTHE TAKEAWAYFLORIDA: Remains atop the SECs Eastern Division, but the road to Atlanta stiffens with games remaining against Arkansas, South Carolina and LSU. Win them all, and the Gators will return to the league title game.GEORGIA: Continues to be a work in progress in Smarts first season.
