Minneapolis — Wild night.
The Tigers charged back after trailing 8-2 in the second inning and got within a run after the fifth — but the Twins sent 12 batters to the plate in a seven-run sixth and put the Tigers to rout, 15-8.
It wasn’t tense or particularly well-played, but it wasn’t devoid of action. The Tigers bashed four home runs, including going back-to-back for the first time this season. The Twins countered with three home runs and 15 hits. The Tigers also made three errors, which contributed to five unearned runs.
And to think it started so joyously for the Tigers.
