Detroit Tigers Mash Four Homers, Dodge Rain in Win over Cardinals

Kerry Carpenter, Zach McKinstry and Matt Vierling each drove in three runs as Detroit improved to 4 homers in a game for the first time this season.

  • On Saturday, the Detroit Tigers defeated the Cardinals 11-6 at Comerica Park in a rain-shortened game called after 8 1/3 innings.
  • Detroit's offense powered through with a four-homer day; Kerry Carpenter, Zach McKinstry, Gleyber Torres, and Matt Vierling each drove in multiple runs.
  • Tigers starter Jack Flaherty struggled with command, walking four and hitting three batters, while Jordan Walker kept the Cardinals close with a 459-foot grand slam.
  • Following a 40-minute rain delay, relief pitchers Brant Hurter, Will Vest, and Tyler Holton delivered scoreless innings to secure the victory.
  • Justin Verlander, scheduled to start Sunday night, was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday with left hip inflammation, complicating Detroit's rotation.
