The Detroit Tigers edged the Chicago White Sox 5-4 in a thrilling game marked by several key moments. The Tigers jumped out to an early lead, scoring four runs in the first inning, highlighted by Riley Greene's two-run single. However, Tigers pitcher Sawyer Gipson-Long, making his first MLB start in over 600 days, struggled, allowing three runs in just 3.2 innings. In a tight contest that saw the lead change hands, Wenceel Pérez's hustle turned a single into a double, setting the stage for Colt Keith’s clutch bloop double that secured the win for the Tigers in the eighth inning.
