Top 2nd: Rays 2, Tigers 0
The Tigers' bats remained cold in the second.
James McCann got on base with a walk on a 3-2 count with one out, working Chris Archer's pitch count to 35 early on. He would move no further than first base, though.
Tyler Collins, Andrew Romine nor JaCoby Jones could make contact against Archer, each striking out.
