McGonigle's two-run double and Gleyber Torres' RBI single broke the deadlock and set the Tigers on the path to victory. The Tigers had struggled, losing 11 of their last 12 regular-season games against Cleveland, but this victory marked a turning point, as they now sit three games behind the White Sox with several contests still to come.",
