Detroit — The Tigers came home from Cleveland on Wednesday night feeling pretty good. They’d won back-to-back road series, were in second place in the division and sniffing the .500 mark at 17-19.
That started to feel like a long time ago. Especially after the Seattle Mariners rolled into Comerica Park and swatted the Tigers on the nose a couple of times.
On Sunday, though, the Tigers got back on their feet. They took advantage of a spate of wildness by reliever Matt Brash in the seventh inning and took the series finale, 5-3.
BOX SCORE: Tigers 5, Mariners 3
They entered the bottom of the seventh tied 3-3, having chased Mariners starter Logan Gilbert in the sixth.
