MILWAUKEE — The Detroit Tigers looked like they were about to blow another scoring opportunity in the third inning. The first four batters reached safely but were responsible for two outs.
Eric Haase was thrown out trying to steal second base for the first out, and Riley Greene was thrown out between second base and third base because of a mental mistake for the second out.
Nick Maton bailed out the Tigers' offense when he hit a three-run home run with two outs in the third inning. The Tigers beat the Milwaukee Brewers, 4-2, in Monday's series opener at American Family Field.
