Tigers' rally falls short in nightcap, open 0-3
Detroit — On the plus side, no one froze to death.
And, yes, there was that ninth-inning ruckus that spurred thoughts of Friday’s craziness and rallies that might deliver a minor Motown miracle.
But it all ended glumly for the winless Tigers as they lost both games of their Easter doubleheader against the Pirates at ice-cold Comerica Park.
The Pirates tore into Buck Farmer for five runs in the fifth inning of the evening contest, which turned a 3-3 game into an 8-3 runaway ahead of an 8-6 defeat Sunday.
