DETROIT (AP) \u2014 Eduardo Valencia homered twice and drove in four runs, Gleyber Torres had a home run and five RBIs, and the Detroit Tigers scored in every inning they went to the plate in a 14-0 win over the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n
The Tigers became the 22nd team in major league history to score in every inning they came to bat during a game and the second this month. The Kansas City Royals did it in a 15-1 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on July 6.<\/p>\n
Detroit also did it in an 11-5 home win against the Colorado Rockies on Aug. 2, 2014.<\/p>\n
Troy Melton (6-1) allowed three hits and two walks in seven innings. He struck out five. Melton is 3-1 with a 1.09 ERA in his last seven starts.<\/p>\n
Orioles catcher Chadwick Tromp almost prevented history, getting two outs with no one on in the eighth, but Zack McKinstry doubled and Valencia hit a 36 mph pitch over the left-field fence for his second homer.<\/p>\n
Kevin McGonigle reached base five times and scored three runs as the Tigers snapped a three-game losing streak.<\/p>\n
Baltimore’s Taylor Ward went 0-3, snapping his on-base streak at 20 games.<\/p>\n
Dean Kremer (1-4) gave up eight runs in four innings.<\/p>\n
Colt Keith’s two-run triple gave the Tigers a 2-0 lead in the first, and they added three more runs in the second, including Valencia’s first homer.<\/p>\n
Valencia drove in Keith with a third-inning single to make it 6-0, and Torres moved the margin to eight with a two-run homer in the fourth.<\/p>\n
McGonigle’s RBI single made it 9-0 in the fifth and Spencer Torkelson’s sacrifice fly gave the Tigers a double-digit lead in the sixth.<\/p>\n
Torres drove in his fifth run with a groundout in the seventh and Ben Malgeri added an RBI single.<\/p>\n
The teams finish the three-game series on Wednesday with Tigers ace LHP Tarik Skubal (7-5, 2.70 ERA) facing LHP Trevor Rogers (6-7, 4.17).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"DETROIT (AP) \u2014 Eduardo Valencia homered twice and drove in four runs, Gleyber Torres had a home run…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":764155,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2386],"tags":[5,91373,13458,1964,913,147,53,2583,60893,95,4140,4,94426,9500,9501,9496,9497,39139,9498,314,382,5694,594,9009,33608,91332],"class_list":["post-764154","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-detroit-tigers","tag-baseball","tag-ben-malgeri","tag-chadwick-tromp","tag-colt-keith","tag-dean-kremer","tag-detroit","tag-detroit-tigers","tag-detroittigers","tag-eduardo-valencia","tag-gleyber-torres","tag-kevin-mcgonigle","tag-mlb","tag-orioles-tigers-score","tag-package-100024-ap-online","tag-package-100502-member-choice-sports-option","tag-product-30599-ap-sports-news-s-wire-only","tag-product-32562-ap-online-other-sports-news","tag-product-40779-ap-delaware-maryland-sports-only","tag-product-40792-ap-michigan-sports-only","tag-spencer-torkelson","tag-tarik-skubal","tag-taylor-ward","tag-tigers","tag-trevor-rogers","tag-troy-melton","tag-zack-mckinstry"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/764154","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=764154"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/764154\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/764155"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=764154"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=764154"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=764154"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
