Detroit Tigers blow key opportunities in 3-2 loss to Minnesota Twins

The Minnesota Twins nearly handed the Detroit Tigers a victory in Monday's makeup game.

With two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning, Eric Haase delivered a two-out infield single. Reliever Alex Colome fielded the ball, but he threw it past first baseman Miguel Sano. On the next play, Colome pulled Sano off the bag on Harold Castro's weak grounder, putting runners on the corners.

But Robbie Grossman flied out to right field for a 3-2 loss at Comerica Park.

In the seventh inning, though, the Tigers (62-70) missed another chance to capitalize.
