Tigers Win at Pittsburgh, 9-7
The Detroit Tigers stopped the Pittsburgh Pirates, 9-7, at PNC Park. The Tigers got a big game from Josh Naylor, who was 2-4 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. The save went to Jonathan Loaisiga, his 7th this season. Detroit raised its record to 22-11 with the win.

Detroit used the bat of Jordan Walker to get the win. The third baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Tigers ahead, 7-2. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"We'll hit the hot tub in good spirits tonight," said Walker.
