Kevin Kiermaier's solo home run to lead off the bottom of the seventh inning added to the lead for the Rays.
Kiermaier sent Warwick Saupold's 0-1 pitch over the wall in straightaway center field, to make it 6-1.
Saupold got Evan Longoria to fly out to a leaping JaCoby Jones in left center field for the first out, before hitting Rickie Weeks. He then got the next two Rays in order to end the inning.
7th-inning stretch: Rays 5, Tigers 1
Very little has gone right for the Tigers so far.
After six and a half innings, the Rays lead 5-1.
