MLB
A former Tiger came back to haunt his old team Saturday, as Detroit fell 8-6 to the Astros. Isaac Paredes’ two-run double off Will Vest in the eighth inning provided the winning margin for Houston. The Tigers had overcome an early 3-0 deficit with Kerry Carpenter’s third-inning grand slam. Hao-Yu Lee also homered. Framber Valdez gave up six runs over four innings, but it was Vest who suffered the loss.
The Tigers host the Astros again today. Jack Flaherty will return from the injured list to start against Hunter Brown. Coverage will begin at 1:15 on 99.3 The Lift.
The Brewers fell to the Cubs 8-2. Kyle Harrison gave up two runs over five innings. Chad Patrick took the loss, retiring just two Chicago batters in the sixth, while being charged with four runs. Jackson Chourio homered.
The Brewers welcome the Cubs again this afternoon. Brandon Woodruff will pitch against Ryan Rolison.
