MLB – Tigers Win Marathon, Brewers Fall
Rajai Davis’ sacrifice fly in the 13th inning lifted the Detroit Tigers to an 8-7 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays last night. The teams matched run-for-run all night. When the Rays took the lead with four in the top of the sixth, the Tigers responded with four of their own in the bottom of the inning. J.D. Martinez gave Detroit a one-run lead with a solo homer in the bottom of the eighth, but Tampa tied the score with a run off Bruce Rondon in the ninth. Davis also homered for the Tigers. Kyle Ryan got the win in relief. Game details are here.
The Tigers conclude that home set against the Tampa Bay Rays this evening. Kyle Lobstein will start against Jake Odorizzi. Hear the first pitch at 7:08 on AM 1400 and FM 99.3, WCCY.
Taylor Jungmann gave up six runs, as the Milwaukee Brewers lost to the Miami Marlins 6-4 last night. Jungmann didn’t make it through the fourth inning. Domingo Santana homered for Milwaukee. Details are here.
