Game Summary
Detroit defeated Washington 9-2. The Tigers won by sending 12 hits to the plate — including three home runs and six doubles — and by getting four scoreless innings from starter Keider Montero. Ben Malgeri paced the offense with a 2-for-4 performance that included a three-run homer, while Hao-Yu Lee went 3-for-5 with two doubles. Keider Montero allowed one hit over four scoreless innings and was credited with the win; DJ Herz took the loss for Washington. The game’s turning point came in the fifth, when Detroit erupted for a five-run inning highlighted by Malgeri’s three-run shot and Spencer Torkelson’s two-run homer, turning a 4-0 lead into a rout. Washington’s only offense was an eighth-inning two-run homer by Yohandy Morales.
