An hour into Saturday evening’s game against the Toronto Blue Jays, as inclement weather moved across Comerica Park from the north, the skies opened, delaying a game for the third time this week.
When play resumed less than an hour later, the Tigers came out swinging, extending their two-run lead to four on a two-run home run by John Hicks.
But then, as it often does, the Tigers bullpen gave it right back, resulting in a 7-5 loss, their sixth in a row. The Tigers are 3-28 in their past 31 games at home and have the worst record in baseball at 29-65.
