Cleveland Guardians first baseman Carlos Santana was scratched from the lineup against the Detroit Tigers with tightness in his left leg.

Spencer Torkelson homered, but that was all the offense for the Tigers in a 3-1 loss to the Cleveland Guardians.

Guardians catcher Bo Naylor answered with a solo homer in the third off Tigers starter Casey Mize. Later in the inning, José Ramírez extended his hitting streak to 17 games with an RBI single to trim the Tigers’ lead to one.

Kyle Manzardo started the 10th with a double into the left field corner off Brenan Hanifee (2-2) to score Ramirez, the automatic runner at second, for a 4-3 lead. After Carlos Santana walked, Angel Martinez doubled to score Manzardo. A sacrifice fly by Bo Naylor and single by Nolan Jones ended the scoring.
