Game 66 Preview: Tigers out to split weekend series against Rangers

Hot diggity dog! The Detroit Tigers offered a treat to the fans on Saturday in the form of an offensive onslaught against the Texas Rangers, earning a 14-7 win while snapping a six-game losing streak and salvaging a chance at splitting the four-game home series. Powered by the major league debut of Riley Greene, who became the first Tiger since Scott Livingstone in 1991 to get on base four times in their first game, Detroit notched a season-high in runs and extra-base hits while tying the high with three home runs. Or to put it in another frame, the Olde English D scored as many runs on Saturday as they have over its last nine games.
