Tigers Take Down Mariners with a Dominant Performance! 
Another riveting game for the Detroit Tigers as they claim a commanding 6-2 victory over the Seattle Mariners! Let's dive into how our boys brought home this well-deserved win. 
Strong Start for the Tigers 
Right off the bat (literally!), Wenceel Perez set the tone with a solo homer to right field in the top of the 1st. It gave us an early lead and got the momentum rolling. Parker Meadows showed some speed by stealing second, and although we couldn't bring him home, the tone was set.Pitching Powerhouse 
Our pitchers were ON FIRE! The Mariners couldn't get a single hit in the first three innings, and we kept them scoreless until the 4th. Even then, a two-run homer by Raleigh was their only highlight, as our defense shut them down repeatedly. Incredible work from our bullpen!Tigers' Bats Stay Hot
In the 3rd, Matt Vierling scored thanks to a double by Bligh Madris and a fielding error by Haniger. Fast forward to the 4th inning, Jake Rogers hit a monster homer (406 feet!) to increase our lead.The 9th inning was the real icing on the cake! Rogers walked, Perez walked, and Vierling singled to bring in Rogers. Gio Urshela then singled to score Perez and Vierling, pushing our lead to 6-2.
Closing the Deal
Our bullpen delivered again as Hanifee closed out the game by inducing a double play and striking out Moore to end it. Turner did manage a single, but it was too little, too late for the Mariners.Final Thoughts
A complete team effort tonight with strong hitting, airtight defense, and stellar pitching. A fantastic game all around! Keep up the great work, Tigers! Looking forward to the next game.Final Score: Mariners 2, Tigers 6. Go Tigers!
