Tough Loss for the O's in a Nailbiter Against the Tigers 
Hey O's fans, we had a rollercoaster of a game today against the Detroit Tigers. Let's dive into what went down at Camden Yards tonight.Early Struggles for Our Offense 
Our bats were cold in the opening innings. Gunnar Henderson and Jordan Westburg both struck out swinging in the first, and we couldn't manage to get anyone on base. Meanwhile, the Tigers jumped ahead with a solo home run from Torkelson in the 2nd inning and another run on a double by Sweeney. By the 3rd inning, the Tigers extended their lead to 3-0 with a Carpenter homer.Big Comeback in the 5th Inning! 
At the bottom of the 5th, our guys finally found some rhythm. Ramon UrÃas singled to center, and then Cedric Mullins brought the crowd to their feet with a two-run homer to right center! Just like that, we were back in the game, trailing 3-2. Gunnar Henderson continued the momentum with a single, and Jordan Westburg followed up with a double to tie it 3-3!Heartbreaking 6th Inning and Final Innings
Just when we thought we had the momentum, Kerry Carpenter hit his second homer of the game in the top of the 6th to give the Tigers a 4-3 lead. The O's couldn't capitalize on opportunities in the later innings. Adley Rutschman doubled in the 6th but was left stranded. Mullins struck out with runners in scoring position, leaving us biting our nails.The 9th inning was our last chance, but unfortunately, Ramon UrÃas, Cedric Mullins, and Gunnar Henderson all went down against Tigers' closer Foley, sealing a tough 4-3 loss for us.
Final Thoughts 
It's never easy to lose a close one like this, especially when we mounted such a strong comeback. The heart and fight in our team are undeniable. Special shoutout to Cedric Mullins for that monster home run and a solid performance by our bullpen in the later innings. We'll shake this off and come back stronger next game. Keep your heads up, O's fans! We've got the spirit and the talent to bounce back.Go O's!
