<h3>Sheffield returns to help Tigers' wild card chances</h3>



<div class="pre">Chi White Sox (59-80) at Detroit (74-65) 1:05 pm EDT</div>

DETROIT (Ticker) - A horrible second half has the defendingAmerican League champion Detroit Tigers resigned to chasing thewild card. The return of a big bat to the middle of the lineupshould help their chances.


Gary Sheffield returns from the disabled list as the Tigers tryand take the rubber game of a three-game series with the ChicagoWhite Sox on Thursday.


Detroit (74-65), which was tied with Boston for the majors' bestrecord on July 24, is seven games back of the Cleveland Indians(81-58) in the AL Central. A more realistic goal is the wildcard, in which it trails the New York Yankees (78-62) by 3 1/2games.


Sheffield, who has been out since August 21 with a shoulderinjury, had 24 home runs and 71 RBI in 101 games before theinjury.


His return will bolster a lineup that has scored just three runsin the first two games of this series. On Wednesday, KennyRogers returned from the DL and threw five solid innings andTimo Perez hit a game-winning single in the 11th for a 2-1 win.

Chad Durbin (8-6, 4.76 ERA) will make his first start for theTigers since August 18, filling in for injured rookie JairJurrjens. The righthander is just 2-6 with a 8.68 ERA in 11career starts against Chicago.


The White Sox will counter with Mark Buehrle (9-9, 3.47), who iswinless in his last five starts.


Buehrle allowed two runs and four hits in seven innings, but didnot factor into the decision in an 8-5 loss to Cleveland onFriday.


Chicago has won seven of its last nine games against Detroit.
