CLEVELAND — Kerry Carpenter hit a three-run homer off Cleveland's All-Star closer Emmanuel Clase in the ninth inning, and the Detroit Tigers stunned the Guardians 3-0 in Game 2 on Monday to even their American League Division Series at one game apiece.
Detroit ace Tarik Skubal pitched seven shutout innings, increasing his post-season total to 13, before the Tigers put together a rare big inning against the almost unhittable Clase. Jake Rogers singled and Trey Sweeney hit consecutive two-out singles. Carpenter, who entered an inning earlier as a pinch-hitter, turned on Clase's third straight slider, sending the ball into the right-field seats and shocking Cleveland's rowdy home crowd.
They're at it again and will now head home to Comerica Park for Games 3 and 4 on Wednesday and Thursday with a chance to advance.
