Dillon Dingler, Tigers catcher, is pictured tagging a runner at home in a captioned sequence. While not central to Roden’s injury saga, he represents a veteran presence that could influence Detroit’s catching depth and minor-league call-ups, with potential fantasy implications if he assumes regular duties.

Dingler drew an intentional walk to load the bases in the 10th, setting the stage for Torres’ walk-off. Dingler’s plate discipline in that moment highlights his value as a high-leverage option and a contributor in Detroit’s evolving lineup.

Torres delivered the walk-off for Detroit, drawing the bases-loaded pass to end the 10-inning marathon. His at-bats, situational awareness, and ability to come through in high-leverage spots underscored his value as a late-season catalyst for the Tigers’ lineup.

Skubal delivered seven scoreless innings with double-digit strikeouts, limiting Houston to three hits and a handful of baserunners. A multi-pitch arsenal, including a fastball up to 99 mph and effective changeup/slider usage, kept a potent lineup at bay in a marquee duel and set a foundation for Detroit’s late-inning victory.

Detroit handled a tense 0-for-9 chase through regulation, then capitalized in the 10th when Torres drew a bases-loaded walk off Ort to seal the win. Skubal’s seven scoreless frames and Brown’s six scoreless frames anchored a pitching duel that kept the Houston offense at bay, while Carpenter and Torres supplied the timely hits. The win steadies Detroit’s late-season footing and adds a glimmer of momentum for a lineup blending veteran leadership with emerging youngsters.
