Tigers slide by White Sox to push win streak to 3

Special to The Detroit News

Detroit — The Tigers took down yet another first-place team Monday night, beating the Central Division-leading Chicago White Sox with a 4-3 comeback win before 12,884 at Comerica Park.

Detroit has won three straight, having taken the last two games at Tampa Bay against the East Division-leading Rays. They also swept a two-game series last week from the Milwaukee Brewers — one of the National League’s best teams.

Robbie Grossman was hit by a pitch from reliever Craig Kimbrel with two outs in the eighth inning, stole his 18th base of the season, and scored the winning run when Harold Castro hit a single between the first and second baseman into short right field.
