J.J. Hardy hit a leadoff home run off of Matthew Boyd in the top of the third inning, tying the game at 1.
Tigers maintain slim lead through 2
The Tigers had a pair of baserunners in the bottom of the second inning, but nothing else to show for it.
James McCann led off the half inning by striking out -- it was determined on appeal that he offered at a low pitch from Wade Miley -- before Jose Iglesias singled off the end of his bat. Ian Kinsler then grounded into what looked like was going to be a 6-4-3 double play, but a poor throw to first from second baseman Jonathan Schoop allowed Kinsler to reach safely.
