Tigers 8, Braves 2: Niko GOODrum steals the show

Three game win streak? Three game win streak.

The Tigers’ victory over the Atlanta Braves on Friday should go down as one of their best all-around performances of the season, as the offense scored the fourth most runs in a game and the six-run win margin is their second highest so far in 2019.

Niko Goodrum, who grew up 30 minutes away from Atlanta and had seemingly a whole section’s worth of friends and family in attendance, had the best game of his career, hitting two home-runs - one of which nearly left the stadium - to go with two singles and a double.
