Tigers Get Past Pittsburgh (GCL) for 4-3 Win
Both teams had their chances, but the Detroit (GCL) Tigers eventually prevailed.

The Pittsburgh (GCL) Pirates got a sterling performance from pitcher Kevin Taylor, but the Detroit (GCL) Tigers still prevailed, 4-3. Taylor threw 5.0 innings allowing 3 runs. Jon Cardenas was the winner in relief. His record is now 1-0. The losing pitcher was J.R. Purcell.

Detroit (GCL) used a timely hit from Matt Phillips to get the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Tigers ahead, 4-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a difference-maker.

"Say want you want about this team, they play nine innings hard," said Detroit (GCL) manager Jesse Rogerson.

The first-place Tigers have won 5 straight games.
