Gio Urshela hit a two-run homer in the 10th inning after the Detroit Tigers overcame a 9-4 deficit in the ninth to beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 11-9 on Saturday.
DETROIT —
“What a game by the whole team,” said Urshela, who didn’t enter the game until extra innings. “They fought so hard and I just wanted to get the runner to home plate.” “With a five-run lead, especially the way we’ve been rolling, we have to win that game,” Dodgers catcher Austin Barnes said. “We went cutter up and in and just got to it. We needed to close out that game sooner.”
The inning could have gotten much worse for Detroit, as right fielder Vilade lost Gavin Lux’s flyball in the sun, but he recovered to make a lunging catch.
