The Detroit Tigers have been dragging since the start of August, having won just two out of their 10 games played this month after dropping the third and final matchup with the Cleveland Guardians on Thursday night in extra innings. A ninth-inning rally knotted things up after a decent start from Garrett Hill but the idiotic ghost runner rule came back to bite the good guys, giving the Guards a sweep and extending the team’s losing streak to four games.
The Motor City Kitties hit the road for a three-game weekend series against their American League Central rivals, the Chicago White Sox, starting on Friday night.
