The Tigers gave up two more runs in the bottom of the seventh inning.
After Jordan Zimmermann gave up a leadoff single to Juan Centeno, he was lifted for right-hander Alex Wilson. Wilson allowed a single to Jake Marisnick, before George Springer grounded into what should've been a 1-6-3 double play. Instead, Wilson made a lazy throw to second base that ended up in shallow center field, allowing Centeno to score and Marisnick to take third. Josh Reddick then hit a sacrifice fly to right field, scoring Marisnick.
Jose Altuve grounded into a fielder's choice for the second out, before Carlos Beltran flew out to end the inning.
