We hear from Casey Mize after he stifles the Astros in a 3-1 Tigers victory in Game 1 of a doubleheader Saturday. #Detroit Roots
Driving to Comerica Park on Saturday, Detroit Tigers manager AJ Hinch purposefully went the wrong way on a few roads. “A lot of accidents and floods,” Hinch said Saturday.

Detroit — Has a player ever looked prouder or happier to haul the glittering WWE-styled championship belt into the interview room after a victory? “I’ve been dreaming about this,” said shortstop Zack Short, who was bestowed offensive player of the game honors by his teammates after bashing his first career home run, a two-run blast that
Friday night’s rainout was probably a blessing in disguise for the Detroit Tigers.

The Astros got off to a good start with singles from Jose Altuve and Michael Brantley
Detroit – It’s seemed like a random decision – starting Casey Mize in the first game of the scheduled double-header Saturday and Wily Peralta in the second. Except Tigers manager AJ Hinch doesn’t do anything randomly. There was rhyme and reason for it. “You’re kind of trying to hit the forecast,” he said, meaning, if
Zack Short picked the perfect time to hit his first career home run, blasting a 2-run opposite field shot to give the Tigers a 3-1 lead. Casey Mize turned in another standout performance, giving up just one run in 6 innings with 5 strikeouts against a red-hot Astros team.

The 2021 amateur draft begins on July 11, and with the later date comes more time for analysis, predictions, smokescreens, rumors, and possible major changes up and down teams’ draft boards. With this in mind, there is naturally quite a bit of uncertainty over which prospects will land with which teams, as a real consensus
DETROIT — As the 27th man on the roster, Zack Short knew his time with the Tigers would be fleeting. He’d held his own through five Major League games earlier in the season, but Saturday provided a chance to make a real statement. Short did that and then some, not only flashing the leather at shortstop but
