One thing was indisputable: the Tigers’ home opener was wildly entertaining.

What is disputable is whether they should have lost, 13-10, in 13 innings to the Pirates on Friday at Comerica Park.

The Tigers had a walk-off win erased by replay in the bottom of the 10th inning. The Tigers thought it was simply a courtesy review that had no chance of being overturned.
