Tigers Clip Royals, 2-1
Detroit Tigers starter Joe Ross was in a groove as he led his team to a win over the Kansas City Royals, 2-1. Ross, now 1-0, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 6 hits, while striking out 5, walking 1, and allowing 1 earned run. The Tigers, with just their 3rd win in 10 games, have played uninspired baseball so far.

Had Jean Segura not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 2nd and 3rd, Segura hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 2-1, in favor of the Tigers.

"I'm proud of the boys for pulling through," said Tigers manager Eric Dolegowski. "The wins don't come easy for this team, but everyone's got an extra jump in their step after a game like this."
