Detroit fails to score even one run and loses to San Diego by a final score of 1-0. The loss also keeps the Tigers in last place in their division.

Good news for VMart and the shotty offense... maybe he can provide a spark.

 

Guess what?

Tigers tie game at 3-3 and then promptly give up 2 runs to now trail 5-3 in the top of the 6th inning.

 

Well, Tigers rally with 2 in the 9th and win, 7-5. I gave up on them and they pulled one out... good for them.

 

It is understandable. It was looking bleak for the Tigers for most of the game. Detroit needed this game and needed to avoid another sweep.
