Power Plays by the Tigers 
From the perspective of a Detroit Tigers fan, last night's clash against the Athletics was a rollercoaster of emotions! We witnessed some power plays that had us on our feet. In the top of the 3rd inning, Riley Greene delivered a sensational 471-foot homer to center, bringing home Jake Rogers, Colt Keith, and Gleyber Torres. That fantastic hit catapulted us to a 4-3 lead, and we all felt the tide turning in our favor. Let's not forget Colt Keith's solo homer in the 5th that tied the game at five. 
The A's Resurgence 
Despite our boys' best efforts, the Athletics kept coming back. Jacob Wilson kicked things off for the A's with a three-run homer in the bottom of the first, and their continued resilience was hard to match. Shea Langeliers proved to be a thorn in our side, consistently pushing runners into scoring positions. Even after taking the lead in the top of the 10th with Wenceel Pérez and Zach McKinstry spearheading the attack, we had a tense bottom of the 10th. Unfortunately, the Athletics snatched victory in a nerve-wracking finale, scoring two more to seal the deal at 7-6.Heartbreak and Hope 
While the Athletics edged us out 7-6 after 10 fiercely-contested innings, there's a lot to take pride in. Kerry Carpenter and Spencer Torkelson put up strong at-bats and stuck it out there, even amidst heavy pressure. There's no denying that games like these are tough for us fans, but seeing our sluggers step up and deliver is inspiring. Tiger Nation, keep the hope alive! Let's take this energy into the next game. Go Tigers!
