The Detroit Tigers clinched a tight 2-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday evening at Comerica Park. The Tigers' offense sparked in the fifth inning thanks to Wenceel Perez, who delivered a clutch ground rule double driving in two runs. Tarik Skubal delivered another masterful performance on the mound, tossing seven scoreless innings and allowing only two hits while striking out seven. Beau Brieske came in for the save, albeit surrendering a solo home run to Brandon Lowe in the ninth, but maintained the lead to secure the win. With this victory, the Tigers improve their record to 83-74 on the season.
