This time, the Detroit Tigers didn't have it in them.
They've made 11 comeback wins in the shortened season, because of offensive outbursts from rookies, recent newcomers and veterans alike. But facing Minnesota Twins starter Michael Pineda, the Tigers' bats slowed.
Relievers Cody Stashak and Taylor Rogers didn't budge, either.
One day after the Tigers snapped a four-game losing streak, the Twins (26-17) responded soundly in a 6-2 win Monday at Target Field. Pineda pitched seven innings of two-run ball with eight strikeouts in a 104-pitch outing, his second back from a 60-game suspension.
