DETROIT, MICH. ~ The Detroit Tigers continue to slide in the race for an American League Wild Card spot. After losing 3-0 to the Tampa Bay Rays Wednesday afternoon at Comerica Park, Detroit is now five games back of a playoff spot.
Detroit’s offense was silenced for most of the game, only recording two hits, with one coming from All-Star catcher Dillon Dingler.
The Tigers have now lost five series in a row, being swept by division rivals in the Kansas City Royals and Chicago White Sox along the way.
Former Tigers’ pitcher Tarik Skubal is expected to make his return to Detroit this weekend as the Los Angeles Dodgers come into town for a three-game series. First pitch for the first game is set for Friday at 6:40 p.m.
