'It's old': Tigers muster one hit in losing fifth straight, 5-0 to Astros

Houston — They wore pink Sunday to celebrate Mother’s Day around baseball. But it had to feel like Groundhog’s Day to the Tigers.

Wake up, go to the ballpark, play game, lose game.

"It's old," catcher Eric Haase said. "No one likes losing. It leaves a bad taste in our mouth every time."

It’s five in a row now, 12 of the last 14. There seems no end in sight.

Back-up shortstop Aledmys Diaz hit a two-out grand slam home run off reliever Drew Hutchison in the third inning and the Astros swept the Tigers out of Houston with a 5-0 win at Minute Maid Park.
