Detroit – Paper cuts sting. Lefty Matthew Boyd took one right after another until he bled out four runs in the second inning Saturday night and the Baltimore Orioles went on to salvage a split in the doubleheader, beating the Tigers 6-4 in the nightcap at Comerica Park.
The Tigers took the first game 7-4.
There were some deeper cuts in this one, but they came later. It was the little nicks in the second inning that put the Tigers on life support.
Jorge Mateo led off with an infield single, the ball leaving his bat with an exit velocity of 67 mph.
