Jose Iglesias singled through a drawn-in infield to drive in the winning run in the ninth inning, and the Detroit Tigers beat the visiting Chicago White Sox, 2-1, on Friday to improve their record to 9-1, the best in the major leagues.
Detroit’s rally was aided by a disputed call that White Sox Manager Robin Ventura tried to challenge; however, he was denied by the umpires, who said he had objected too late.
Nick Castellanos led off the ninth with a sinking liner to right off Zach Duke that Melky Cabrera could not grab cleanly.
