Detroit Tigers rookie Casey Mize was only supposed to pitch three innings.
His efficiency persuaded manager AJ Hinch to send him back out for the fourth inning. Wednesday's outing against the Texas Rangers marked Mize's final outing before the All-Star break. After the break, his innings will be continue to be limited for a couple of starts.
Mize completed the fourth, but not before Rangers slugger Joey Gallo smacked his second homer to tie the game at two all. The Tigers (40-47) didn't go down without a fight, scoring three runs in the seventh for a 5-3 win and series victory at Globe Life Field.
