The Detroit Tigers dropped their second-straight game in a three-game series against the San Diego Padres Saturday night, 14-3. Things seemed to be trending upwards for the Tigers early in the game, but the rain from an hour and 24-minute weather delay cooled off their bats.
Matt Manning's (3-1, 3.19 ERA) night was cut short by the rain, pitching just two innings and recording two strikeouts and giving up one hit. Mason Englert was called in to replace him but struggled. In 2 u2153 innings, he surrendered nine runs on 10 hits and recorded just one strikeout.
