Tigers 7, Giants 5 (F/11): Nick Maton walkoff winner!

Scott Harris and his Detroit Tigers welcomed in his old club, the San Francisco Giants on Friday night. They got the victory, but it was an eleven inning marathon displaying most of the team’s weaknesses that was finally punctuated by a three-run walkoff blast from Nick Maton.

The theme in this one early on was Joey Wentz punching a lot of tickets. Giants left fielder and leadoff man, Thairo Estrada, gave them an early margin when he battled through an eight pitch at-bat and eventually ripped a solo shot to center field. From there, Wentz would not be denied.
