Tigers 7, Twins 5: Offense finally breaks out to take down the Twins

The whole Bless You Boys staff wishes you all a good Memorial Day as we remember the sacrifices of service members in our armed forces. It was good to see the club wearing the red poppy on this day. The Tigers’ offense gave Tigers’ fans some things to cheer about on the holiday, racking up 13 hits to down the Twins 7-5 at Comerica Park.

Starter Beau Brieske battled his command early on and struggled to attack Twins hitters. A leadoff walk in the first went nowhere, but Gary Sanchez led off the second with a solo shot, and a walk to Trevor Larnach, followed by a Brieske wild pitch, had the Twins right fielder in scoring position.
