Cleveland Guardians Snap Losing Streak Against Tigers

The Cleveland Guardians snapped a three-game losing streak with a 5-4 victory over the Detroit Tigers on July 23, 2024. José Ramírez played a pivotal role, hitting a solo home run and contributing an RBI single, marking his first home run since June 29. In addition, Steven Kwan and rookie Jhonkensy Noel also homered, helping the Guardians improve their overall record to 59-40. Despite a late rally from the Tigers that brought the score to 5-4, the Guardians' pitching staff, led by rookie Cade Smith and closer Emmanuel Clase, secured the win. The Guardians had struggled offensively in the weeks leading up to this game, scoring two or fewer runs in six of their previous eight matches. This victory improved their home record to 31-14, but they remain in a tight competition in the AL Central despite their recent challenges.
