Niyo: Clark, Tigers give fair warning despite foul ending
Max Clark’s epic 12-pitch at-bat in the eighth inning helped give the Tigers a 'puncher's chance' in the 6-4 loss against the Guardians.
Detroit's Tigers faced a tough loss to Cleveland in a delayed playoff chase on Wednesday night, as they fell short in a 6-4 game at Comerica Park. Despite the defeat, Tigers manager AJ Hinch took some positive points from the game, noting that the team put up a good effort and leaned on some key players. In particular, rookie Max Clark's impressive at-bat against Cleveland's Cade Smith brought hope for the future.
However, the loss left the Tigers with a sink-or-swim mentality as they now face the possibility of reaching .500 for the first time since early May.
