The Detroit Tigers fell to the Cincinnati Reds 8-4, marking their second consecutive loss to Terry Francona's squad. Following a rough outing from the bullpen in their previous game, which ended 11-1, the Tigers made a significant move by optioning pitcher John Brebbia to Triple-A Toledo. Brebbia, with a 7.71 ERA this season, struggled in his last appearance allowing three earned runs in just 22 pitches. In his place, Tyler Owens is called up from the minors. The Tigers, currently underperforming, might turn to the trade market for bullpen help as they navigate injuries, including the pivotal loss of pitcher Jackson Jobe.
