Live blog: Indians add a run, Tigers lead 5-2 in 6th

Top 6th: Tigers 5, Indians 2

The pitch count for Justin Verlander was at 85 to start the sixth and he needed a quick 1-2-3. He didn't quite get it.

Edwin Encarnacion swung at the first pitch and lined out to left. However, Jose Ramirez then worked a full count, then a walk. Lonnie Chisenhall drilled a ball to the base of the wall in right center for a two-out RBI triple. He was stranded at third thanks to an Abraham Almonte groundout to first.

Jason Kipnis popped out to Miguel Cabrera for the second out.
