Tigers 6, Padres 0: Tigers go straight for the Hart in series win

Rubber match time!

In today’s afternoon showdown, we saw Reese Olson on the mound for the Tigers, facing off against Kyle Hart, who might be a professional baseball player purely for me to write “Hart of the rotation” jokes.

In the top of the first, Fernando Tatis Jr. reached on a fielding error by Gleyber Torres, then advanced to second on a wild pitch (that struck out Gavin Sheets). Tatis got greedy, though, and the inning ended with a caught stealing as he headed for third.

In the home half, Gleyber Torres wanted to make up for his error, so he did it with a one-out solo home run.
