MLB
The Tigers returned from the All-Star break with a 5-4 victory over the Blue Jays last night. Jack Flaherty didn’t allow a baserunner through five innings. He left the game in the sixth, after giving up a two-run homer to Vladimir Guerrero, Jr. The Tigers had plated three in the top of the fourth, on an RBI single by Riley Greene, and a two-run Mark Canha homer. They added two more on a Wenceel Pérez home run in the seventh. George Springer’s two-run shot off Beau Brieske in the eighth narrowed the gap, but Jason Foley and Tyler Holton were able to close the game out.
