Verlander joins Don Sutton in exclusive MLB pitching club

Detroit Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander achieved a rare milestone by joining Don Sutton as the only pitchers in MLB history to begin their career with at least 380 starts on their original team, accumulate at least 175 elsewhere, and then return to their first club.

The feat highlights Verlander's longevity and reliability, solidifying his status as one of the most respected starters in the league as he enters what many consider his final season.
