The trend continued throughout the game, with the Tigers failing to progress past a score of zero. Shoutout to our bullpen who sealed the deal late in the game.Key Moments of the Game
The game really came alive in the bottom of the 6th inning. Jose Altuve set the tone with a double to left. Alex Bregman followed that up with an electrifying triple to center field, bringing Altuve home! Yordan Alvarez then hit a sacrifice fly to center, allowing Bregman to score and extend our lead.
