'Just a bad weekend': Tigers offense continues to sputter as Rays sweep series

St. Petersburg, Fla. — Jake Rogers, packing up his bags after the Tigers got swept out of Tropicana Field on Sunday, losing the finale of the season-opening series against the Rays, 5-1, was asked what this young team can take out of such a tough start.

"That we hate to lose," he said. "That we want to win. We're going to go into Houston a little hungry trying to get some wins under our belt."

The Tigers start the season 0-3 for the first time since 2018, managing a paltry three runs the entire series.
