Ah, baseball. Just a week ago, the claws were out and sports talk radio was taking call after call from furious fans. Now here are the Tigers, winners of five straight after a spectacular outing from Eduardo Rodriguez and a timely solo shot from Riley Greene helped them sweep the doubleheader. The offense is still stuck in first gear, but wins are wins.
Part two of Tuesday’s doubleheader was a very low-scoring affair. Eduardo Rodriguez absolutely carved up the Guardians for his part, taking advantage of the cold by pounding the strike zone with all of his pitches and forcing the Guardians to swing the bat in pitchers’ counts.
