Tigers Victors, 8-6, at Minnesota
The Detroit Tigers had to overcome a fine effort from Minnesota pitcher Marco Gonzales to win, 8-6, at Target Field. Gonzales went 6 innings and allowed 1 run. Tanner Bibee earned the win in relief. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 3.2 innings. He upped his record to 1-0. The Tigers, now 15-7, have been playing some good baseball.

Matt Olson came through with a big-time hit for Detroit. The pinch hitter smacked a 3-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to give his team the lead, 7-6. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"Say want you want about this team, they play nine innings hard," said Detroit manager Chris C.
