Detroit Tigers’ nine-run inning stuns Yankees in Bronx blowout
Parker Meadows and Kerry Carpenter led Detroit's nine-run seventh inning, propelling the Tigers to their largest scoring inning this season and an 8-game division lead, officials said.
- On Tuesday, the Detroit Tigers turned a close game into a rout with a nine-run seventh inning, beating the New York Yankees 12-2 at Yankee Stadium in the series opener.
- Yankees relievers Fernando Cruz and Mark Leiter Jr. surrendered nine runs while recording no outs, following earlier miscues that let the Tigers capitalize beginning in the fifth inning.
- Kerry Carpenter added a two-run triple that completed the big inning and produced high exit velocity on a key hit, helping spark a nine-run seventh for the Tigers.
- The victory kept Detroit atop the AL Central, remaining eight games clear in the division, while New York sits at 80-64 facing mounting pressure in the AL East as the season winds down; both teams meet Wednesday with Jack Flaherty opposing Carlos Rodón.
- Looking ahead, Detroit will try to extend this momentum while their magic number 10 highlights the win's impact, and the Yankees bullpen issues raise concerns about October.
