Detroit Tigers rally but can’t come back in the ninth

The Detroit Tigers played their final game of the series against Houston tonight and lost 6-3, but they did make it interesting in the ninth. The loss on the night means the series goes to Houston 3-1. The Tigers did take a historic upset last night, however, in a series that most people thought Houston would sweep.

The Tigers were down 6-0 coming into the top of the ninth and managed to score three runs and put two additional runners on base to bring Dawel Lugo, who represented the final run, to the plate. Lugo hit the ball to the warning track in right field but Josh Reddick brought it in with a nice catch, sealing the deal in Houston.
