Tigers tie Orioles

[Steve Bielawski]

The Tigers only wished that their offense were scoring runs as they did yesterday in today's game.  They ended up scoring one run in the eighth.  However, that was good enough for a 1-1 tie  against the Orioles.

The Orioles scored their run in the top of the fifth, when Bryan Ramos hit a home run.

In the bottom of the eighth, Max Clark walked, went to second on a ground out, made it to third on a passed ball, and scored on a wild pitch.

Justin Verlander gave up three hits, including the solo home run by Bryan Ramos in the fifth.  He struck out six in 4 2/3 innings.

21-year-old lefty Jorger Petri walked a batter before getting the last out of the fifth inning.

Kanley Jansen gave up one hit and one walk but no runs in the sixth.  He struck out one.

Burch Smith gave up two hits but no runs and no walks in the seventh.  He struck out two.

Ricky Vanasco pitched a perfect inning in the eighth, with one strikeout.

Konnor Pilkington gave up one hit while striking out three in the scoreless ninth.

Tomorrow, the Tigers will travel to Bradenton, to play the Pirates.
    Braxton Ashcroft will start for the Pirates, while Casey Mize will start for the Tigers.
