GOOD NEWS: Detroit Tigers’ star finally makes decision to stay.
The Detroit Tigers rallied with back-to-back two-out singles in the eighth inning to beat the Texas Rangers 4-2 on Tuesday afternoon at Comerica Park.
The Tigers (10-7) and Rangers (9-9) have split the first two games of the four-game series.
“It’s kind of how everybody expects us to play, so I don’t think there are a lot of secrets,” Hinch said. “It’s just a matter of the situation developing and then having our guys ready. The situation really dictated what to do.
The Tigers had desperately been seeking clutch hits after going 0-for-8 with runners in scoring position in a 1-0 loss to Texas in the series opener on Monday night.
Tigers starter Casey Mize allowed two runs on five hits over six innings. He struck out six without a walk. It was his longest outing since Aug. 30, 2021, his final start before the Tigers started tapering down his workload that year. He made only two starts in 2022 and then missed all of 2023 after undergoing Tommy John surgery.
