Dingler's 1st-Inning Homer Carries Tigers over Orioles 4-1, Helping Stop 8-Game Losing Streak

Dillon Dingler’s two-run homer and Troy Melton’s 5 2/3 innings led Detroit to its third win in 19 games, AP reported.

  • On Sunday, the Detroit Tigers ended an eight-game losing streak by defeating the Baltimore Orioles 4-1 in the doubleheader nightcap at Camden Yards, sparked by Dillon Dingler's two-run homer in the first inning.
  • Troy Melton subdued the Orioles for 5.2 innings in his season debut, returning after a four-month convalescence for right elbow inflammation as the Tigers entered with an MLB-worst 7-21 road record.
  • Kevin McGonigle lined a two-run single to extend the lead while Melton allowed just two hits; Tyler Holton and Drew Anderson combined to secure the final innings, with Anderson striking out three straight batters.
  • The victory followed a 5-3 loss in the opener, where Baltimore's Colton Cowser hit a three-run homer off Kenley Jansen, allowing Detroit to avoid a sweep and snap their longest skid since August 2020.
  • Detroit begins a series against the visiting Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday, with RHP Keider Montero starting for the Tigers against Angels RHP Jack Kochanowicz, both pitchers bringing 2-3 records to the mound.
