Tigers vs. Pirates Preview: Tigers head home to take on star-less swashbucklers

Addison Barger grounded out to first on the next pitch, and the threat was extinguished.

They can run from Thursday's Trade Deadline, but they cannot hide. It’s on the TV, it’s in their phones, it’s in the clubhouse air.

Bo Bichette’s two-run single broke a scoreless tie in the eighth inning and the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the slumping Detroit Tigers 6-1.

It’s a mini red helmet, emblazoned with a fading Vancouver Canadians logo, that once held Sam Shaw’s serving of ballpark ice cream. Shaw, 20, grew up attending Canadians games at Nat Bailey Stadium, the home of the Toronto Blue Jays’ High-A affiliate.

Tarik Skubal threw 6 scoreless innings (helped by a Matt Vierling web gem) but Tigers hitters mustered two hits in a 6-1 loss.

In the ninth, Bo Bichette broke a scoreless tie in the eighth inning with a two-run single. The Blue Jays added insurance in the ninth inning with three home runs. Nathan Lukes, George Springer, and Vladimir Guerrero all went deep. It was the 18th of the season for Springer.
