An afternoon series finale against the Yankees and the Tigers came out big on a sunny Detroit day. Matt Manning squared off against Clarke Schmidt, and had himself a very nice day, so let’s see how this Tigers win shaped up, in case you were working and not playing hooky at the park.
Manning issued a leadoff walk to DJ LeMahieu, but got the next three outs. In the bottom of the inning, Riley Greene got a one-out single and Spencer Torkelson walked, but neither baserunner scored.
In the second, Jake Bauers got a single, but then got caught stealing to end the inning.
