Detroit Tigers swept by Chicago White Sox in 5-3 loss, fall to 30 games under .500

The Detroit Tigers nearly escaped the fifth inning without allowing more than one run.

Instead, the Chicago White Sox took the lead.

A grounder from Andrew Vaughn to shortstop Javier Báez should have been the inning-ending double play, but first baseman Kody Clemens couldn't hold onto the relay throw from second baseman Willi Castro.

Eloy Jimenez scored on the play.

The Tigers lost, 5-3, and were swept in three games at Guaranteed Rate Field, as the offense tallied eight hits, zero walks and 14 strikeouts. The Tigers (43-73) have dropped seven games in a row and carry a 7-26 record since July 9.
