Live Tigers blog: Tigers clinging to late lead

Bottom 8th: Tigers 7, White Sox 5

Justin Wilson stayed on to pitch the eighth inning and gave up a two-out single to Tyler Saladino. He came back to strike out the pinch-hitting Dioner Navarro to put the Tigers just three outs away from a key victory in Chicago.

Todd Frazier grounded out to third and J.B. Shuck grounded out to second to start the inning.

With Cleveland losing to Baltimore tonight and a number of the other teams in the A.L. Wild Card chase also falling, this would be a big win for the Tigers.
