The Tigers took down the Guardians 5-4 on a damp, chilly Wednesday evening in Detroit, but it didn’t come easy. After building a small early lead, the Tigers added on runs and it was well that they did. A long, scary ninth inning had to be overcome before this victory went into the books.
After an inspired but doomed attempt at a comeback, the Tigers came back out hungry to earn a split and a chance to win the series on Thursday. With Reese Olson on the mound, you liked their chances. As always the question was run support.
