The Detroit Tigers didn’t waste any time Friday night falling behind the Toronto Blue Jays in a 10-1 loss at Comerica Park.
Just five pitches into the first game of Detroit’s three-game series against Toronto, the Tigers found themselves down a run and in trouble with rookie Elvin Rodriguez on the mound. Rodriguez walked George Springer on four pitches to start the game and Bo Bichette turned on the first ball he saw to score the first run. Another run scored on a double from Alejandro Kirk, and that set the tone for the rest of the evening.
