Tigers 5, Reds 3: Wenceel Pérez was the hero of bullpen day

Well they rarely come easy for the Tigers, but another win on Saturday gives them just their second series victory since taking out the Boston Red Sox early in June. The bullpen did a great job, and the bats finally got loose once starter Hunter Greene was out of the game.

The Cincinnati Reds presented a good opportunity for the Tigers to win a series and start righting the ship after taking the first of three on Friday night. Saturday’s test would be tougher as the Tigers went with a bullpen day with Jack Flaherty skipping another start to get his back right.
