Game Summary
Detroit Tigers defeated the Cleveland Guardians 3-0. Detroit won behind starter Keider Montero’s 6.1 scoreless innings and timely offense, including Eduardo Valencia’s solo homer and Spencer Torkelson’s late RBI single. Montero was credited with the win and Kenley Jansen closed out the ninth for the save. The Tigers seized a 1-0 lead in the third when Dillon Dingler’s groundout brought in Javier Báez, and Detroit added insurance on Valencia’s sixth-inning homer and Torkelson’s eighth-inning RBI. Cleveland managed just four hits and one walk, and Parker Messick took the loss after permitting two runs over 5.2 innings as Detroit’s pitching staff held the Guardians scoreless.
