last night's loss

Tigers News

The Detroit Tigers stumbled into their series against the Atlanta Braves, suffering a painful 5-2 loss that saw two key players, Casey Mize and Javier Báez, exit with injuries. Mize, who had been a bright spot with a 2.51 ERA, left the game due to right groin tightness, further straining a pitching staff already on edge. Meanwhile, Báez, a crucial member of the clubhouse, is set to undergo an MRI for a right ankle injury that he sustained while running the bases. With their record now at 15-14 and the team feeling the heat from a 6.7 runs allowed per game over the last week, the Tigers must find a way to bounce back as they face the formidable Braves again tonight.
