Clutch Hitting Delivers Win for Tigers
Detroit and Minnesota got after it at Target Field.

The Detroit Tigers defeated the Minnesota Twins, 8-4, in National League action at Target Field. Detroit pitcher Carlos Rodon had a standout performance. Detroit is now 38-26, 4½ games up in the National League Central Division.

Detroit used a timely hit from Michael Harris II to get the win. The right fielder stroked a bases-clearing double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Tigers ahead, 6-4. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Rodon said.
