Tigers Win, 5-1, at Minnesota
Detroit Tigers starter Edwin Espinal pitched his team past the Minnesota Twins, 5-1. The winning pitcher was Espinal, now 1-0. He tossed 7.1 innings of 3-hit ball, while walking 1 and fanning 5. The win gives Detroit a record of 4-3.

Frank McConnell had a big 2-run double for the Tigers in the top of the second inning. With Detroit leading 2-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a fastball from Felix Perez, the 11th overall pick in the 2045 draft, and swatted a double to right-center. It was his 4th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Tigers ahead, 4-0.

"I liked his command," said Detroit manager Andrew Warren. "Edwin was throwing strikes."
