The Detroit Tigers amazingly returned to their winning ways after a wild one against the Chicago Cubs in Detroit on Saturday afternoon. The Motor City Kitties ultimately outlasted the north-side Cubbies in extra innings with a 9-8 win to even up the three-game weekend series. José Ureña gave up more than two runs for the first time since his 2021 debut but the bats came alive in support of him, and despite a middle-inning meltdown by Alex Lange, the home team emerged with a gutsy win.
The boys in the Olde English D can win their second-straight series on Sunday if they can find a way to antagonize their opponent’s starting pitcher again, especially since they are sending their ace to the hill.
