Tigers News
After enduring yet another gut-wrenching walk-off loss, this time 3-2 in ten innings against the Guardians, the Detroit Tigers are left picking up the pieces of a frustrating series where they led in 26 of 38 innings but still managed to drop three out of four games. With a record of 65-77, they’re clinging to a lukewarm vibe as the season winds down, marked by injuries including Matt Vierling’s move to the 60-day IL. On a brighter note, Brant Hurter returns from the injured list just in time to add depth to a beleaguered rotation. Meanwhile, Jackson Jobe will look to shake off his 1-2 start as he takes the mound against Cleveland’s Gavin Williams. The Tigers desperately need to shift momentum away from this disheartening trend, but with just weeks left in the season, are they running out of time?
