Athletics podcast Michael Roberson:

#1 Detroit Tigers Dilon Dingler hit a three run home run and got help from Kerry Carpenter who also belted a two home run as the Tigers handled the Sacramento A’s 11-4 at Comerica Park in Detroit on Tuesday night.

#2 The Tigers Riley Greene had a big night with four hits, a double, two RBIs and scored two runs. Wenceel Perez got two hits for two RBIs.

#3 The Tigers starter Tarik Skubal improved his record to 9-2 allowing four runs, six hits, and eight strikeouts in six innings pitched and he got lots of run support and has the longest win streak for pitchers in MLB.

#4 Keys for the A’s Brent Rooker and Denzel Clarke both slugged two run home runs in the first and second innings respectively. It wasn’t enough as the A’s needed a lot more offense than that to get back into this game losing by eight runs.

#5 A’s and Tigers get after it Wednesday night at Comerica. Starting pitcher for Sacramento LHP Jacob Lopez (1-4 ERA 4.25) for Detroit RHP Jack Flaherty (5-8 ERA 4.83) first pitch 3:40pm PDT
