The Tigers’ losing streak reached six games last night, as they dropped a 4-3, 10-inning decision to the Blue Jays. Home runs by Nick Maton and Kerry Carpenter gave Detroit a 3-1 lead going into the bottom of the ninth. Toronto scored twice off Trey Wingenter to force extra innings. The Tigers put runners at the corners in the top of the 10th, but couldn’t score. George Springer’s single off José Cisnero in the bottom of the 10th drove home the game-winner for the Jays. Eduardo Rodiguez gave up seven hits over six innings, but allowed just one run.
The Tigers host the Giants this evening. Spencer Turnbull will start against Chris Bassitt. Coverage will begin at 6:15 on 99.3 The Lift.
