The Detroit Tigers and Chicago Cubs swapped leads multiple times, and the teams needed extra innings to conclude Saturday’s contest at Comerica Park that featured 17 runs, 25 hits, 10 walks and 14 pitchers. The final blow came from the Tigers in the bottom of the 10th inning. (In extras, a runner starts the inning on second base.) After the Cubs took
Some wins are about finesse, clutch hits and standout performances. And then there are the “grit” wins — ones that taste extra sweet looking back after a hard fight. Harold Castro provided the knockout punch with a single to left field that sent JaCoby Jones careening around the bases and into a headfirst slide into
Erie’s winning streak was halted at three games on Saturday afternoon at UPMC Park when the Akron RubberDucks jumped out to an early lead, eventually winning 9-2. Mark Leiter Jr. started on the mound for Erie, his first start since 2017 with the Triple-A Lehigh Valley IronPigs, and he dealt Erie’s winning streak was halted
Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario exited Saturday’s game against the Chicago Cubs with a left knee contusion. He was plunked in the knee by Cubs reliever Dan Winkler’s 91.3 mph cutter in the sixth inning. Once Candelario got hit, he hobbled behind home plate and toward the dugout, where Miguel Cabrera — in the

Kyle Funkhouser remembers exactly how he felt after learning he’d been optioned to Triple-A Toledo at the end of Spring Training. Not happy. Sour. Like he’d been smacked in the mouth a little bit. But then came the fight response: The Tigers righty wasn’t going to spend a day longer in the Minors than he
Detroit — To paraphrase James Baldwin: There’s nothing more dangerous than a man who has nothing to lose. Tigers right-hander Kyle Funkhouser is feeling a little bit like that these days. After getting his teeth kicked in last season (14 runs in 17 innings) and being unceremoniously optioned back to Triple-A this spring — if
Well Tigers fans, the winning was fun while it lasted. On Friday night, the Chicago Cubs came to town and took the first of a three-game weekend series, 4-2, to snap the Detroit Tigers’ four-game winning streak. It was not a bad loss — Cubs starter Jake Arrieta, while not quite the pitcher he used
When the Detroit Tigers drafted Spencer Torkelson with their first overall pick in 2020, the reaction was a near-unanimously positive one. He’s a transcendently talented hitter, with refined poise and patience to pair with his smooth stroke and impressive power. He brings the thunder in a way no other Tigers prospect can. For all the
Tarik Skubal is stuck. The rookie left-hander is somewhere between really good and not so good. He feels like he is getting close to a breakthrough game, where he unleashes the talent that took him from a ninth-round draft pick to one of the best pitching prospects in baseball. Detroit Tigers manager AJ Hinch thinks
Indianapolis Indians 6, Toledo Mud Hens 2 (box) Logan Shore walked six batters in this one, yet the Hens held a lead in the seventh inning. The bullpen couldn’t make it stick, as Robbie Ross Jr. and Nolan Blackwood leaked late runs and Indy ran away with the game. Shore went 4 1⁄3 innings, and
Detroit — It never was going to be easy, and it never was going to be quick. But what exactly is an acceptable period of time to rebuild the Tigers, particularly when you look around the game and see other rebuilds coming to fruition, from Chicago to San Diego, and elsewhere in between? That’s the question
The Tigers have re-signed right-hander Franklin Perez to a minor league contract, the team announced. Detroit put Perez on release waivers on Wednesday, but he cleared and will return to the organization he has been with since 2017. He won’t occupy a 40-man roster spot as a result of this deal. Perez was a prospect
INDIANAPOLIS – The Toledo Mud Hens brought the potential tying run to the plate with one out in the top of the ninth, but a four-run eighth inning from the Indianapolis Indians proved too much to overcome in a 6-2 setback on Friday at Victory Field. Facing the Tribe’s (5-4) flamethrowing closer Jandel Gustave to
