Casey Mize was very good, and again the Detroit Tigers came out with a good game plan against a very good starting pitcher in Mariners’ RHP Logan Gilbert. They pieced together three early runs, and Mize and the bullpen did the rest. When the Mariners did get on the board finally, Riley Greene answered right back with his second home run of the young season. Good stuff. 4-1 Tigers.
The Tigers couldn’t asked for too much more from their first inning against one of the top right-handers in the sport. Zach McKinstry started them off with a solid line drive to center field but right out to Julio Rodriguez for the first out.
