Tigers 5, Astros 2: Andy Ibáñez powers Tigers with the hit of a lifetime

For over two months, the 2024 Detroit Tigers have played the most clutch brand of baseball we’ve seen in many, many years. They had plenty more in the tank in Game 2 of the Wild Card Series, and they needed all of it. A sloppy seventh inning cost them a slim lead, but they came right back with an absolutely stunning rally punctuated by an Andy Ibáñez moment that will forever live in Tigers postseason history to upset the Astros 5-2 and advance to the Division Series against the Cleveland Guardians.

Here we go for Game Two of the AL Wild Card series, with the Tigers hoping to sweep the series and head to the ALDS.
