Spencer Torkelson - Blasts 22nd home runTorkelson went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Sunday's win over the Guardians.
ImpactFollowing a walk by Matt Vierling to begin the top of the first, Torkleson sent an 0-1 pitch over the wall in right for an opposite field homer. The two-run blast was his fifth in eight games and seventh this month, though his previous six August home runs were all solo shots. The batting average is still a sub-par .233 but Torkleson's power surge is beginning to provide the Tigers with the type of production they expected when they made him the first overall selection in the 2020 draft.

Logan Allen - Saddled with loss in quality startAllen (6-6) took the loss Sunday, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks over six innings against the Tigers. He struck out five.
ImpactAllen started off the game with a walk followed by a two-run homer by Spencer Torkleson, but then settled in to allow no more damage. He finished his start by inducing 12 consecutive outs, but the Guardians could only muster one run which left him on the hook for a sixth loss on the season. Allen's next scheduled start is penciled in for Saturday against the Blue Jays in Toronto.
