Clark homers and bullpen locks down a Tigers victory
The Tigers got back into the win column after what seemed like forever.
Detroit Tigers center fielder Max Clark hit a two-run homer in the fifth inning, clinching a 4-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays. The win evened the three-game series at a win each. Jackson Jobe made his fourth start of the year, although his pitch count had been gradually increasing in his previous three starts. Although Jobe struggled with control, relievers Dillon Dingler and Eduardo Valencia kept the Rays at bay.
Max Clark then delivered a crucial home run in the fifth inning, putting the Tigers ahead for good. Relief pitcher Drew Sommers then shut down the Rays in the later innings, sealing the win with a save.
