The Detroit Tigers ended their six-game losing streak against the Cleveland Guardians with a 6-4 victory at Comerica Park. Rookie Kevin McGonigle was a standout performer, contributing a double and a single that drove in three runs. This win propelled the Tigers closer in the Central Division and Wild Card standings, bringing them back to .500. Starter Drew Anderson allowed a solo homer, while relievers Jacob Waguespack and Drew Sommers held the Guardians at bay.

The Tigers extended their lead in the seventh inning, capitalizing on walks and an error. McGonigle delivered another RBI single to cap the rally. Closer Kenley Jansen secured his 14th save despite a tense ninth inning. However, the team's momentum was tempered by an injury to All-Star Riley Greene, who left the game in the second inning with right hamstring tightness after being hit by a pitch. His status is pending further evaluation.
