Minneapolis — The Tigers came into the game Saturday having scored at least five runs in six straight games.
Lefty starter Joey Wentz might’ve wished they saved him a couple.
With his start sandwiched between two bullpen games, Wentz went six strong innings. He didn’t allow a base runner until the fifth and posted a career-best nine strikeouts.
As much as he helped ease some of the stress on a weary bullpen, it wasn’t enough to win the game.
The Minnesota Twins, using six different relievers, blanked the Tigers, 2-0, at Target Field.
