Breaking News: The Detroit Tigers Detroit Tigers defeated the Twins 6-1, but the officials and referees of that game received some very sad news.
Minneapolis, Minnesota — The Detroit Tigers defeated the Minnesota Twins 6-1 on Sunday thanks to three home runs and three runs infield from Buddy Kennedy, who pitched six perfect innings for his first major league victory since 2021.

In addition to scoring twice and driving in two runs, Spencer Torkelson had two singles. The Tigers improved to 8-3 on the road behind three goals from Riley Greene.

Mize (1-0) earned his first win since August 24, 2021, at St. Louis, allowing five hits, walking three, and striking out four. The 2018 amateur draft’s top pick missed almost all of the previous

When I pitch, Mize stated, “I always want the guys to think that they can win.” Although I didn’t have the best material, “compete” seemed to be the buzzword of the day. All I was doing was attempting to escape with what I had.

The Twins are hitting.195, which is the second-worst batting average in the major leagues, and have dropped six straight games.

Following the game, manager Rocco Baldelli stated, “We’ve got some guys who took their shirts and jerseys off and they’re in (the cage) hitting right now.” That gives you an idea of how things are currently going. Things are not proceeding as we would want.

Austin Martin, a rookie from Minnesota, launched his first career home run off Alex to start the ninth inning.

Twins right-hander Louie Varland (0-4) was wild from the start. He walked the first two batters he faced and, after getting a groundout, gave up a single and another walk. Kerry Carpenter’s base hit and Kennedy’s sacrifice fly drove in runs to give the Tigers a 2-0 lead.

“I didn’t have much feel for many pitches that first inning and tried to adjust,” said Varland, who needed 39 pitches to get through the first. “I adjusted, threw more strikes, but my stuff wasn’t as sharp or as good.”

Mize had an early bout of wildness as well, walking two of the first four hitters he faced, but he retired Martin on a lineout and Willi Castro on a flyout to leave the bases loaded in the first.

“It was just a battle from pitch one,” Mize said. “Long inning in the top half … (but) if I leave the game and there’s a zero in the run column, it’s hard not to be happy with that.”

Varland pitched around a leadoff walk in the second, but didn’t make it out of the third inning. Torkelson led off with a single, and Varland hit Carpenter with a pitch to put two runners on.

A double play put Varland on the verge of pitching out of trouble, but he left a cutter over the middle to Kennedy, who deposited it in the left-field stands for a two-run homer. That ended Varland’s day and perhaps his current stint as the Twins’ No. 5 starter, as his ERA climbed to 9.18 through four starts this year.

“It’s everything I asked for, I trained for this offseason,” said Varland, who lobbied for a return to the rotation after a successful run in the bullpen late last season. “Going into camp I had the opportunity right in front of me and it’s just not ideal how it’s been going.”

The Tigers tacked on single runs with Torkelson’s RBI double in the seventh and his sacrifice fly in the ninth.

Tyler Holton worked two hitless innings in relief of Mize.
