Detroit Tigers implode defensively and get swept by the struggling Boston Red Sox—can they recover before the season slips away? Scott Bentley spotlights Detroit’s brutal defensive miscues, including Colt Keith’s costly error, and questions whether any non-catcher on the roster can be a reliable fielder. The Tigers’ offensive woes continue, as Riley Greene and company fail to capitalize on scoring opportunities, going hitless in the bottom half of the lineup and stranding runners in scoring position.

Pitching offers the lone bright spot, with Jack Flaherty striking out 10 over five innings, but the team’s bullpen is stretched thin after Framber Valdez’s suspension and a mounting IL list. Off the field, A.J. Hinch’s suspension, Gleyber Torres’ injury, and organizational turmoil cast a shadow over Comerica Park. With an AL Central still up for grabs, can the Tigers right the ship before it’s too late, or is this a sign of deeper trouble ahead?
