Twins Sunk by Tigers
The Detroit Tigers defeated the Minnesota Twins, 6-3, in American League action at Comerica Park. Detroit pitcher Carlos Rodon had a standout performance. Rodon, the winner, moves to 3-0. He threw 6.1 innings of 3-hit ball, while fanning 10 and giving up 1 walk. Dylan Lee earned the save for Detroit, his 5th of the year.

The game was on the line with two out in the top of the eighth inning, but Julian Merryweather didn't flinch. With a runner on 1st and Minnesota trailing 4-3, Merryweather retired Max Stassi to end the threat. "Nothing to it," said Merryweather, with a wink.

The Twins fall to 5-8 and continue their sputtering start to the 2024 season.
