Hernández, Tigers Sink White Sox Again in Game 2
The Detroit Tigers moved to within one game of the League Championship Series today, downing the visiting Chicago White Sox at Comerica Park by a score of 5-4. Tigers right fielder Teoscar Hernández did some major damage. He belted 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. The win gives the Tigers a 2-0 advantage in the best-of-5 Division Series.

The game was all tied up in the bottom of the eighth, until Hernández delivered big-time for Detroit, stroking a dramatic solo home run off Yency Almonte. The game-changing hit put the Tigers on top, 5-4.

"I'm just trying to make good contact," said Hernández, "one at-bat at a time."

The next game is set to be played for Wednesday, October 11th , 2023 at Guaranteed Rate Field in Chicago.
