The Tigers dropped the finale in Baltimore to the Orioles by a final of 2-1 in extra innings on Sunday. Eduardo Rodriguez started for Detroit and threw seven shutout innings, but the offense’s inability to execute with men on base wrecked any chance the Tigers had at salvaging a game in the series. They left 13 runners on base while Baltimore was able to capitalize on the few opportunities they had after breaking up Rodriguez’s perfect game bid late in the seventh.
Detroit now finds itself on a four game losing streak with virtually every hitter in the midst of a slump.
