Detroit Tigers dominated the Tampa Bay Rays at Comerica Park on Wednesday night, securing a convincing 7-1 victory. Parker Meadows set the tone early with a first-inning solo home run, part of his standout 3-5 performance that included another run scored and an RBI. Spencer Torkelson also shone, driving in three runs and going 2-4 with a homer and a double. Detroit Tigers Top Prospect Jackson Jobe made his MLB debut in the 9th, retiring three of four Tampa Bay Rays to close out the game. Keider Montero started the game, allowing one run over 2.2 innings, while Sean Guenther earned the win with two perfect innings in relief. Detroit's bullpen collectively stymied Tampa Bay's batters, with Holton, Vest, and Jobe combining for five scoreless innings. Junior Caminero provided the sole highlight for the Rays with a solo home run in the third inning. With this win, the Tigers improved their overall record to 83-74.
