Tigers' Seventh Inning Spark Fizzles as Orioles Dominate at Oriole Park

First Inning

The Detroit Tigers, with a record of 44-25, faced off against the Baltimore Orioles, who stood at 27-39. The game took place under the lights at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. The Tigers struggled to find their rhythm early in the game, with both teams going scoreless in the first inning. The Motor City Kitties were unable to capitalize on any opportunities as they failed to register a hit or run.

Third Inning

By the third inning, the Orioles began to show signs of life. They managed to break through with 2 runs and 3 hits against Tigers' starting pitcher Casey Mize. Mize's performance was solid but not enough to keep Baltimore's bats silent for long. His ERA stood at an impressive 3.375, and he struck out seven batters over his outing.

Seventh Inning

The seventh inning saw a glimmer of hope for Detroit as they finally got on the scoreboard with one run and three hits. Colten Keith was instrumental during this period; his batting average was .333, contributing significantly by driving in one run for his team.

However, this spark from Tigs was short-lived as Baltimore responded immediately in their half of the seventh by adding another run to their tally.

Eighth Inning

The eighth inning proved decisive when Baltimore unleashed an offensive barrage that resulted in seven runs off five hits against Detroit's bullpen pitchers Brenan Hanifee and Tyler Holton. Hanifee struggled with an ERA of 18.0 while Holton posted a slightly better but still challenging ERA of 6.75 during this stretch.

Detroit’s pitching staff collectively allowed sixteen hits throughout nine innings while recording ten strikeouts overall—highlighting both moments of brilliance and areas needing improvement moving forward into future games.

Despite valiant efforts from players like Spencer Torkelson who maintained consistent fielding prowess (fielding percentage: .1000), it wasn't enough against such relentless opposition pressure applied by O’s lineup which included two home runs among their sixteen total base knocks across all frames played today!
