The Detroit Tigers came into this game on a seasonhigh 5 game losing streak and the fans were getting restless. Would they break the streak behind Keider Montero Spoilers: No, no they would Kumar Rocker took the mound for the Rangers. Once a huge prospect, injury troubles set him back in his career and hes finally starting to put it together at the major league level. Lefties have given him fits, though, so the Tigers trotted out a leftyheavy lineup. Colt Keith led off and struck out on a cutter down and in. Gleyber Torres, a rock in the lineup and clubhouse, worked a walk. Wenceel P eacute;rez battled but flied out Duque Hebbert Jersey, leaving it up to Riley Greene to do something productive. He grounded Montero got the start for the Tigers, his first since July 7th he did a bad spot of relief on July 12th. His previous start was a inning, 1 run success against the Rays. The Rangers couldnt do anything in the first, grounding out twice and ending with a Marcus Semien swinging strikeout on a nasty Torkleson led off the 2nd with a strikeout. After a groundout, Rocker got Parker Meadows to strike out on that same nasty cutter that got Tork and Keith. If he had that going the entire game, it was going to be a rough one for got things going in the bottom of the 2nd. Adolis Garc iacute;a smacked a single to right field. While Montero is usually good at holding runners on, Garc iacute;a was able to swipe second. It was moot because Evan Carter walked. A grounder towards second was snagged by Trey Sweeney to allow for a force at second, putting runners on the corners. Rowdy Tellez, recently of the Mariners and picked up by Texas for his home run powerhit a Montero fastball into the bullpens for a 3run homer. Ope. Keider rebounded to get the next two outs, but the damage was Tigers needed a solid answer after that home run. All three batters softly grounded out on just a few pitches. Not got the first two outs before walking Semien, as his command began to falter a bit. After a Jake Rogers mound visit, Garc iacute;a flew out, thankfully ending the worked his second walk to lead off the 4th. Perez had a very patient atbat, seeing 8 pitches and walking as well. With the heart of the order up Jim Northrup Jersey, the next three batters got out without even advancing the runners. Much got a solid bounceback, striking out two batters in a 123 grounded out, losing a footrace to the bag with Rocker by fractions of a second. Rogers hit a liner to shortstop, then Sweeney grounded out. Another 123 inning for the Tigers bats and their scoreless streak was at 1innings, dating back to before the Higashioka led off with a ball down the left field line that took a lucky Tigers ricochet off the wall, holding him to a single on a ball that 99% of the time is a double. It didnt matter too much because Montero walked the following batter on just four pitches. The bullpen began warming up, maybe a tad too late. A liner was hit to third that bounced off of Keiths glove, but he was able to run it down and fire to Montero for a force at third. Seager hit a single through the infield that scored a run, making it 40. Finally, he was pulled in favor of Brenan got Semien out on one pitch, inducing a shallow flyout. He then got Garc iacute;a to weakly ground out, ending the remaining threat. Monteros final line: 4.1 IP, 4ER on 4 hits and 3 walks, with Tigers really needed to get things going in the 6th. They get their first hit of the game with two outs, a P eacute;rez single. Greene then immediately struck out to end the Hurter came in for Hanifee in the bottom of the frame. He got two outs before walking Tellez. A great pitch froze Higashioka, striking him out to end the popped up to open the 7th, which turned out to be the final batter for Rocker. For a guy that has struggled this year, this was easily his best outing of the season. Lefty Hoby Milner relieved him and got a McKinstry popup. Matt Vierling pinchhit for Meadows and stroked a single to left. Rogers battled back from 12 to get a walk. Jahmai Jones pinchhit for Sweeney with two on and a chance to get some runs on the board. He struck out swinging on three pitches, so nothing remained in the game and was able pitch himself a 123 inning. A solid outing for a guy that has struggled of the top of the 8th, Jacob Webb was on the mound for the Rangers. Zero Tigers reached Hern aacute;ndez, the struggling flamethrower reliever, came in for Detroit. He had a solid inning, getting all three outs without drama. The bullpen did their job this game and should rightly get some props considering their Tigers were down to their final three outs and looking at two consecutive shutouts. Riley Greene decided that enough was enough and greeted Webb with a home run to right Troy Melton Jersey, spoiling the shutout. Would have been really nice if he could have done that earlier in the game with runners on, but it is what it is. Tork grounded out. McKinstry gave a ball a ride into left center but somehow Wyatt Langford made a stunning running grab to deny him extra bases. Vierling battled, but popped up the final pitch to end the game.
