Francisco Liriano was brilliant in this one, taking a no-hitter deep into an eight inning, shutout performance. Unfortunately Shane Greene melted down in the ninth, and the Tigers ultimately lost 3-2 in 11 innings.
The Tigers jumped out to an early lead in this one. With two outs, Nicholas Castellanos ripped a single to left. The red hot John Hicks then pounced on a Wade LeBlanc hanger and smoked it 426 feet over the left field wall to make it 2-0 Tigers. It was to stay that way for a long, long time.
