ATLANTA — The Detroit Tigers have fallen five games under .500 for the first time in the 2024 season.
In Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Atlanta Braves, right-hander Casey Mize showcased his ability to compete as he bounced back from a two-run first inning, but the defense made two errors and the offense remained all but dead.
The Tigers (34-39), finishing with five hits and two walks in Tuesday's game at Truist Park, have a 29-39 record since their 5-0 start to the season. They've dropped nine of their last 12 games with three losses in a row.
