Rule 5 draft pick Akil Baddoo — in just his third MLB game — delivered a walk-off single Tuesday in the 10th inning, giving the Detroit Tigers a 4-3 win over the Minnesota Twins.
With Harold Castro on third base, Baddoo drove a 2-1 slider to right field against Twins right-hander Hansel Robles. The Tigers improved to 3-2 with the victory.
It's been an unbelievable three days for Baddoo, who homered on the first pitch in his MLB debut, crushed a grand slam in his second game and has now delivered a walk-off hit.
Baddoo entered as a pinch-runner in the bottom of the eighth inning.
