A Clawbiting Victory at the Twins' Den!​

🐅 Last night's game had every Tigers fan on the edge of their seat as the Detroit Tigers snatched victory from the jaws of the Minnesota Twins with a final score of 5-4. Let's dig into the excitement, play by play, and celebrate our players' pivotal moments.

First Inning Frenzy​

The game kicked off with some quick action. Although Mark Canha grounded out and Wenceel Perez couldn't find his swing, Kerry Carpenter doubled to right, setting the stage for Spencer Torkelson's infield single that brought Carpenter home. We grabbed the lead, but not for long, as the Twins responded with a homer by Trevor Larnach, flipping the scoreboard to 2-1.

Tigers Claw Back!​

As we moved into the 3rd, the Tigers showed their resilience. Parker Meadows walked and stole second, a move that paid off when Perez singled him in, tying the game. Then, Carpenter singled Perez home, grabbing back the lead! 🎉

Fast forward to the 6th, another RBI from Carpenter after Perez's electrifying triple extended our lead. However, the Twins weren't done yet, tying the game at 4-4 with Byron Buxton's two-run double.

The Ninth Inning Nail-Biter​

Everything boiled down to the 9th inning. With the score tied, nerves were frayed. Then, Meadows singled, advancing to second on a thrilling pickoff error. This set the stage for Perez, who delivered a heart-stopping single to bring Meadows home, pushing the Tigers ahead 🚀.

Sealing the Deal​

In the bottom of the ninth, Jason Foley came in to close the game, bringing some top-notch pitching to keep the Twins at bay. Despite a walk to Willi Castro that gave Twins fans a glimmer of hope, a fly out by Christian Vazquez sealed the Twins' fate.

Roaring Into the Night​

🎉 What a game! Our Tigers showed tenacity, strategy, and the heart of champions. Special shoutouts to Kerry Carpenter for his crucial RBIs and Wenceel Perez for the game-winning hit. Let's carry this energy forward and keep our eyes on the prize. Go Tigers! 🐅🔥
