Glasnow goes 7 innings to lead Dodgers to 6-1 win over Tigers
Tyler Glasnow pitched seven innings for the Los Angeles Dodgers, allowing only two hits and one run, as they secured a 6-1 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Sunday. Freddie Freeman contributed to the win by driving in three runs, while Teoscar Hernández added two runs and two RBIs. Teoscar Hernández was also instrumental in the early innings, hitting a two-run homer and scoring twice for the Dodgers.
Despite Detroit's recent struggles, scoring nine runs in their last six games and losing 12 of 15, the Tigers started the game with a 1-0 lead after Miguel Rojas hit a sacrifice fly in the fourth inning. However, Freddie Freeman smashed a 434-foot homer for the Dodgers in the sixth, extending their lead to 3-1. The Dodgers continued to dominate, loading the bases with one out in the eighth inning, though Mookie Betts and Tanner Rainey both struck out to give up the final run of the game.
The Dodgers will return home to face the St. Louis Cardinals in a three-game series starting on Tuesday.
