The Detroit Tigers continue their weekend series against the Boston Red Sox on Saturday afternoon at Fenway Park.
The Tigers’ chances of clinching the American League Central took a big hit in the first game of the series on Friday night. With the Cleveland Guardians losing to the Minnesota Twins, Detroit just had to hang on to a 3-0 lead against the Red Sox.
TIGERS STREAMING OPTIONS
They did not.
Boston clawed its way back into the game, scoring a single run in each of the final three innings, pulling off a 4-3 walk-off victory. It was Detroit’s 10th loss in its last 12 games. Not necessarily the recipe for a championship contender.
Yet, with the Guardians losing on Friday, there is still an avenue for the Tigers to win the division. With Detroit also holding the last Wild Card spot in the AL, the team has to be wary of the Houston Astros, who are just a half-game back of the Tigers.
