Joe Jimenez comes up big, offense keeps rolling as Tigers take series from Rangers

Arlington, Texas — What’s frustrating — if anything can be truly frustrating after a road series-winning 9-8 victory against the Texas Rangers, except maybe the last two innings — is that the Tigers haven’t been able to produce this type of offensive performance more frequently this season.

The same team that has been shut out a league-most 17 times and came into Sunday having scored the fewest runs in baseball, scored six-plus runs for the fourth straight game.

The last time the Tigers put together a stretch like that was July 3-6, 2019. With the nine-spot on Sunday, they scored 26 runs in the three games at Globe Life Field and 32 over the last four games.
