Swept in Seattle, Tigers waste Kody Clemens' grand slam in nightcap

Seattle — On the penultimate day of a long and mostly frustrating season, the Tigers played two long and mostly frustrating baseball games against the playoff-bound Seattle Mariners Tuesday at T-Mobile Park.

In the first game they were beaten 7-6 in 10 innings, losing two late leads and failing to do enough damage against a catcher (Luis Torrens) who pitched the top of the 10th inning.

In the nightcap, rookie Kody Clemens launched his first career grand slam to take the Tigers from a 4-1 deficit to a 5-4 lead in the fifth inning.
