Early Struggles and Tigers Take the Lead
The game started off as a pitcher's duel with neither team able to put a run on the board through the first five innings. We saw some solid defensive plays and pitching on both sides, but it looked like the Tigers might have had a slight edge when Gleyber Torres blasted a solo homer in the 6th inning to bring the score to 1-0 in favor of Detroit. And then Wenceel Perez doubled, driving in two more runs to build on that lead, putting us in a 3-run hole.A's Turn the Tide! 
But, oh, how the tides turned in the bottom of the 7th! Colby Thomas ignited the rally with a 397-foot homer to left center, sparking the team and narrowing the deficit 3-2. Following that momentum, Darrell Hernaiz and Tyler Soderstrom set the stage before Shea Langeliers came up big with a clutch home run, sending the ball 450 feet to left center and scoring everyone on base to flip the game 6-3 in our favor! 
Finishing with a Bang! 
Our bats didn't cool off there. In the bottom of the 8th, after Lawrence Butler got on base with an infield single, Nick Kurtz made sure to raise the decibel levels in the Coliseum, as he launched a 380-foot homer, padding our lead to 8-3. Alvarado then sealed the deal in the 9th, wrapping the game up by retiring the heart of Detroit's lineup with ease.Cheers to an incredible win, A's fans, it's performances like these that make us proud to support the green and gold! Keep the faith and bring on the next challenge!
