Riley Greene Shines in Tigers Shutout | Detroit Tigers News

Riley Greene lit up the scoreboard with two homers and four RBIs, powering the Detroit Tigers to a 6-0 shutout over the Cleveland Guardians on Saturday. After a brutal stretch of 16 losses in 20 games, Greene’s explosive performance was the spark the Tigers needed. Starter Framber Valdez pitched seven scoreless innings, rookie Ben Malgeri added three hits and an RBI, and the bullpen locked it down. Despite rookie pitcher Parker Messick’s strong outing—striking out a career-high 12—Greene’s bat dominated, including a first-inning homer and another in the sixth. The win gives Detroit a much-needed boost, moving them to 65-77, though still 6.5 games out of a playoff spot. The series finale is Sunday, then the Tigers head home for a three-game set against the Twins. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
