Braves roar back, hang on to defeat Tigers 10-7

The Atlanta Braves roared back from a four-run deficit to beat the Detroit Tigers 10-7 in the first game of Wednesday’s doubleheader.

Spencer Strider came in looking to bounce back from a rough start against the Mets in his last outing. His afternoon didn’t really go that way, though, as Spencer Torkelson took him deep in the first inning to give Detroit a 1-0 lead.

Things got worse for Strider in the second as he hit Nick Maton to start the inning. He retired Andy Ibanez on a fly out for the first out before Miguel Cabrera squared up a fastball and drove it out to left for his first home run of the season, extending the deficit to 3-0.
