The Detroit Tigers secured a commanding 5-1 victory against the Arizona Diamondbacks, buoyed by the impressive performance of rookie right-hander Troy Melton, who pitched seven scoreless innings in just his second MLB start. With this win, the Tigers have recorded back-to-back victories after a challenging stretch. Melton's pitching excellence was underscored by his ability to limit hard contact and generate a whiff rate of over 23% on his fastball and slider. The Tigers took an early lead with contributions from Spencer Torkelson, Javier Báez, and Dillon Dingler, with Andy Ibáñez also making a notable impact in his return to the lineup. Meanwhile, Eduardo Rodríguez struggled against his former team, underlining his inconsistency and raising questions about his future performance.
