For their first trip north of the border since 2019, the Tigers faced the Blue Jays in the first of three in The Big Smoke. Trailing 1-0 late, they came back to tie the game and eventually push across a few runs in the tenth inning, winning 4-1 in a Friday night matchup.
Robbie Ray got the start for the Blue Jays, and his 2021 has been sensational so far. But, did you know that, in the past five years, he’s led the major leagues in strikeouts per nine innings? More than Chris Sale, more than Max Scherzer, more than Jacob deGrom.
