Urshela now hitting over .300 for Tigers
Gio Urshela went 1-for-4 with an RBI in Tuesday’s loss to the Braves. Urshela’s RBI single in the top of the sixth gave the Tigers their first run scored on a night where the Tigers struggled to string together hits against Spencer Schwellenbach, who made his best start of the season. Urshela was responsible for one of the Tigers’ five hits on the night and is hitting .304/.365/.413 in the month of June.
Albies hits triple in narrow win
Ozzie Albies went 1-for-4 with a triple and an RBI in Tuesday’s win over the Tigers. Albies hit his first triple of the season in the first inning to drive home Jared Kelenic. His RBI would be one of two the Braves would drive in on the evening in what turned into an unexpected pitching duel on the evening. Like many of his teammates, Albies has struggled at the plate this month, slashing .209/.229/.418, despite having nine extra base hits.
