From the outset, Detroit's bats were alive and kicking, racking up an impressive total of ten hits during the game. The turning point came in the second inning when Detroit seized their chances to score three runs, solidifying their lead early on. This offensive onslaught was marked by an outstanding team batting average of .303 and an on-base percentage of .343 for the duration of the game.

The Tigers' pitching crew delivered a stellar shutout effort by restricting New York to merely four hits while maintaining a collective earned run average (ERA) of zero across nine innings pitched. Starter Keider Montero was particularly noteworthy for his five-inning stint where he maintained an ERA at zero while striking out five batters and allowing just two hits.

The bullpen was instrumental in safeguarding Detroit's advantage; Jason Foley stood out with his impeccable relief pitching that kept Yankee hitters guessing.

Defensively, Detroit executed flawlessly in fielding without committing any errors throughout the game which bolstered their pitchers' efforts by ensuring no unearned runs made it past home plate.
