Tigers Collapse in Wild Doubleheader | Detroit Tigers News

The Detroit Tigers’ doubleheader against the Cleveland Guardians turned into a rollercoaster of drama — and heartbreak. After building a four-run lead, the Tigers were stunned by Brayan Rocchio’s grand slam in the fourth, then watched him deliver a walk-off homer in the ninth to seal a 7-6 Guardians victory. The game was delayed by weather and jet noise, adding to the chaos. While the offense showed promise early and Keider Montero pitched well, the bullpen couldn’t hold the lead. Now six and a half games behind in the wild card race and nine back in the AL Central, the Tigers face a tough climb — with a rookie starter set to debut in the second game later Friday.
