Riley Greene hit two home runs, as the Tigers stopped the Orioles 4-2 yesterday. Following up on his complete-game shutout five days ago, Keider Montero tossed five scoreless innings, and earned the win. 

The Tigers visit the Royals tonight. Detroit has not designated a starter. Seth Lugo will go for Kansas City. Because of NFL football on 99.3 The Lift, Tigers coverage will begin at 7:15 on KBear 102.3.

The Twins also won, so the Tigers remain two-and-a-half games back in the race for the final American League wild card playoff berth.

The Diamondbacks scored three runs in the bottom of the 10th inning, and edged the Brewers 11-10 yesterday. The outburst against Jared Koenig came after Milwaukee had scored twice in the top of the inning. Starter DL Hall also struggled, allowing five runs over just three frames. Jackson Chourio and Eric Haase homered.

The Brewers entertain the Phillies tonight. Aaron Civale will pitch against Ranger Suárez.

NFL

Baker Mayfield’s 11-yard touchdown run with 34 seconds remaining gave the  Buccaneers a 20-16 victory over the Lions yesterday. Detroit quarterback Jared Goff threw for 307 yards, but was intercepted twice.

The Packers shut down the Colts 16-10. The Green Bay defense held Indianapolis to just a field goal until the closing minutes of the game. Filling in for Jordan Love, Malik Willis completed 12 of 14 passes for 122 yards and a touchdown.
