Tigers Cough up 9th Inning Lead, Win in Extra Innings to Sweep Yankees

The Yankees’ seven-game skid, their longest in three years, ended with 23 hits in six games and a four-run 11th by Detroit.

  • The Detroit Tigers secured a 6-2 victory over the New York Yankees in 11 innings on Wednesday, completing their first series sweep at Yankee Stadium.
  • Troy Melton blanked New York on two hits over 6.1 innings as dominant Tigers pitching set the tone, while the Yankees' losing streak reached seven games, their longest in three years.
  • In the 11th inning, Camilo Doval issued consecutive walks to force in the go-ahead run, then Zach McKinstry hit a two-run single as a throwing error by Ali Sanchez sealed the four-run rally.
  • Manager AJ Hinch leaned on Keider Montero through the 10th and 11th innings to secure the win; McKinstry said, "We want it more," reflecting the Tigers' intensity.
  • The Tigers travel to Texas on Thursday to face RHP Nathan Eovaldi, while the Yankees host Minnesota for a three-game series starting Friday.
