Tigers vs. A's Game Highlights (9/6/24) | MLB Highlights

Start for the right hander. Mitch Spence. And just another great example, I think of all of the work that has been put in this season, but Mitch Spence is a guy who we watch continue to take his game to the next level. And I think the pitch ability for Mitch Spence is something that we're really going to start to zoom in on here down the stretch line drive right at Schuman. He'll put the squeeze on it one down young behind in the count zero and two and Spence will strike him out on three pitches too quickly down for the a starter in the first tonight. Now here's the pitch and that's on the outside to bring him up. Tigers go down 123. We go to the bottom of the first with the, is coming up 17th win with wins, er, a strikeouts number one in all three trying to win the pitching triple crown , Lawrence Butler swinging on the first pitch that's gonna go deep into the outfield grass and Lawrence losing the helmet. It extends his hitting streak to 16 games. No, waiting around. And why would you grounds this one to short, Trey Sweeney hasn't flips to second for one. Keith on the first. That is a well turned 643, double play, two down. It's a 3 to 2 count on Shay langeliers with the high leg kick deals. This one popped up shallow center Keith and Sweeney both out Parker Meadows coming in hangs up a long time. Parker makes the catch and the side is retired. Scoble faces the minimum despite giving up the leadoff sinker carry Carpenter for two today. Yesterday, he'll lead off here in the second inning for the Tigers swinging a fly ball to center field. This one's deep going back still going. And it's one hop up against the wall carpenter around first and he will Cruz into second one pitch leadoff double here in the second, advancing to third is Carry Carpenter. Now one down for the Tigers in the top of the second inning with spencer Torkelson coming out in the pitch by Spence. It's a ground ball to second play at the plate. Fires lang the tag carpenter running on but perfectly placed. As far as the A's are concerned , a pretty well hit ground ball with the infield in right to second to G off and 42 on the play at the plate. Langs makes the tag and bottom with a second. No score pop up foul. And this is going to be one of those coliseum fouls that Torkelson will make a grab on. Oh, that is not an easy grip. He ran up and over the bullpen mound to make the catch two on two down carry. Carpenter who doubled his first time up on the ground right side , diving to his right is Nevin from his knees flicks it. The first Spence is there takes the throw and the inning is over excellent effort by Nevin plugging up the hole with a dive to his right and they put something on the throw to get Carpenter, eric Skubal on the mound in the ballpark where he was telling us in the bus ride over today. This is where he saw his first ball game. Got him a swinging strike 30, that changeup looking sharp. That's his second strike out. Both of them coming on change ups 22 is a swinging strike three on a change up back to back strikeouts for skubal. He has faced the minimum through three and has only allowed one hit. Lawrence Butler will start the bottom of the fourth inning and the score this game tapp Wely on the left side, tough play for mckindley and he's two for two tonight. So here's Rooker trying to his hitting streak to 10. He bounced into a double play. His first time up. Flares went down the right field line. Carpenter charged it, can't get it. Picks it up on a bounce up to second base is Butler and holds there. So Rooker now a 10 game hitting streak two on and he's trying to get something going here in the bottom of the fourth inning. Now, Blot J Js sluggy percentage right at 800 against lefties, well struck center field going back Parker Meadows. He's at the track. He reaches out, he cannot make the catch backing it up with carry Carpenter heading to third and now the A's are in all sorts of a mess. They're just going to tag out Brent Rooker boy Lawrence Butler. If he had just kept his head down and was running, he would have scored easily on that play but he stopped at third. Rooker didn't see it. They caught him in a rundown because was already at second base. So they had three base runners on the left side of the infield , got him a swinging strike three and a changeup and SBA fired up. I mean, that is a legitimate tiger roar. Tigers are in business with runners on the corners for Riley Green ground ball up the middle. I mean, shortstop Wilson didn't see it. Meadows in to score. Young stops at second. Riley Green delivers a lead for the Tigers in the fifth. Yeah, it almost looked like he broke to the right and the 3 to 2 pitch to Zack is lined to left , a clean base hit might be extra bases. He turning at first green digs it out, fires his second goff with a dive but he's in with a double Gil Ros the two base hit toward the line in left Riley Green with a good job to field it before the ball back to the wall and quickly into second but has very good speed at second. Wilson coming up the high contact hitter two out. Goff's running on anything. Two and one. Wilson gets it in the air to right on. His horse is carpenter. It's dropping down for Gello comes around to score. Wilson rounding second triple this 98 back to back here. He's been sitting 95. He knows the importance of this situation. So here's Cameron at the plate. Cameron drives moves to third base. The A's lead 2 to 1 on the shoulders of Daz Cameron sticking to his process and a one run advantage. The A's finally take a lead in game one. Well, Daz Cameron doing a great job of taking a pitch and hitting it exactly where it was pitched. AJ Hinch is out to take the ball from Tarik Skubal. That's gonna be the end of his night. Two outs for Riley Green's got a pair of hits and an RB I knocking in the lone tiger run today. Line drive and a base hit into center third hit of the night deep into the gap goes blood and Green will Cruz into second. The one that one gets away from the catcher sails to the backstop and on his way to third is Riley Green on a wild pitch. Yanks it and the Tigers are gonna tie it up two wild pitches score, Riley Green from second. We're tied at two in the seven from one all star to another Dallas. What time is it? It's Miller time and Mason Miller gets him to climb up top with 101. And that's just abusive 12 a miss two strikeouts for Mason Miller that will bring up the pitch hitter Justin Henry Malloy , the Reaper just struck out. He will send it to the bottom of the ninth inning at 2 to 2 where the A's will look to win it two outs. Keith, the batter runner on third is Kreidler two, two shot into the field. A base hit for cold key Tigers take the lead in the 10th Rooker with his power. He gets a hold of one. It could be trouble swing and a line drive down the left foot game is tight. Yeah, second base. It's 3 to 3 Meadows. Today is one for five singled and scored on the Riley Green base hit back in the fifth inning. First pitch. Parker lines left field long run for Cameron. It's over his head and one hop the wall torque scores. Here comes Rogers around third and he will score ahead of the throw. It's a two run double for Parker Meadows who does it for the second straight day and the Tigers lead it 53 here in the 11th inning. Sans in batting its 2 46 13 homers, 41 runs batted in 32. Did to like that. The game is brand new 5 to 5. Batter is Riley Green shot in the right center. Cron is being waved around. Third butler's got a big arm throw to the plate. Won't be in time. Tiger's back on top 65. Roddy Green delivers to start the 12th all. This is where things get very, very interesting and dicey for the Tigers of Detroit. First pitch to left field. Schuman is on third catch made by Green. Schuman's good attack game is tied on a sacrifice fly and now , and only now a chance to walk it all off one out and here's brown, it's brown, you know, the six. Yeah.
