JaCoby Jones hit a lead-off home run to open Sunday’s matchup against the Cleveland Indians, and Daniel Norris worked a 10-pitch bottom of the first inning. It was a great start for a Tigers club looking to snap a five-game losing streak against the Tribe.
Unfortunately, the good feelings would end after that. Daniel Norris and the Tigers defense combined to allow five runs — all charged to Norris as earned runs, somehow — in the bottom of the second, and the Tigers never recovered, in an 8-3 loss.
