Riley Greene and Spencer Torkelson homered, as the Tigers downed the Red Sox 4-1 yesterday. Brant Hurter replaced opener Beau Brieske in the second inning, gave up a run on five hits over five frames, and earned the win.

The Tigers visit the Padres tonight. Detroit has not named a starter. Joe Musgrove will open for San Diego. Coverage will begin at 6:15 on 99.3 The Lift.

Outfielder Justyn-Henry Malloy and pitcher Ricky Vanasco have been brought up from Toledo to fill the two extra roster positions the Tigers get in September.

The Brewers fell to the Reds 4-3 in 11 innings yesterday. Neither team scored after the fifth inning, until Santiago Espinal’s single off Bryse Wilson drove home Rece Hinds with the winning run. Willy Adames homered.

The Brewers host the Cardinals this afternoon. Freddy Peralta will start against Andre Pallante.

Milwaukee’s two September roster additions are pitcher DL Hall, who had been the 27th man for Friday’s doubleheader, and outfielder Brewer Hicklen, who hit 21 home runs and stole 42 bases this season at Nashville.
