MLB
Adam Frazier raced home on Mason Englert’s wild pitch in the bottom of the 10th inning, as the Tigers lost 2-1 to the Orioles yesterday. The late run wasted a gem of a start by Eduardo Rodriguez, who gave up just one hit over seven shutout innings, and struck out six. Spencer Torkelson drove home Matt Vierling with a sacrifice fly in the eighth inning for Detroit’s only run.
