'It's not a nice game': Tigers tagged for 6 runs after Chafin struck out the side in 8th

Cleveland — How do you strike out the side, actually strike out four batters in the inning, and still end up allowing six runs to score?

Welcome to Tigers baseball, 2022.

"It's not a nice game," said Tigers reliever Andrew Chafin, who was in the middle of the ruckus in a most bizarre bottom of the eighth inning. "It's going to get you like that sometimes. You just have to roll with it."

Easier said than done after this one.

Up 4-2 in the bottom of the eighth, Chafin struck out Owen Miller, Andres Gimenez and Luke Maile.
