Episode Details

Eduardo Valencia stunned the baseball world with a 425-foot home run in his very first at-bat, becoming the 10th Detroit Tiger ever to do so—and it sealed a 4-1 victory over the Athletics. Framber Valdez dominated with 7 shutout innings and 9 strikeouts, while the bullpen locked it down with Kyle Finnegan and Kenley Jansen nailing the save. The win extended Detroit’s streak to five games and pushed their record since June 1 to 21-12, now just 4.5 games behind first in the AL Central. Jake Rogers and Zach McKinstry added homers, while the A’s struggled with Jack Perkins’ early exit and Zack Gelof’s knee injury.
