Tigers Tie for AL Wild Card Spot

The Detroit Tigers have surged into a tie for the second American League wild card spot after a 4-3 victory over the Baltimore Orioles, thanks to Kerry Carpenter's two home runs. This win marks the Tigers' first winning season since 2016, as they improved to 82-74, tying with the struggling Kansas City Royals. The Tigers have been on a hot streak, winning 11 of their last 14 games, while the Royals have lost seven in a row. Meanwhile, the Minnesota Twins are just a half-game back, complicating the playoff race. In other notable games, the Milwaukee Brewers outslugged the Arizona Diamondbacks 10-9, and the Lions and Packers secured wins in the NFL. The playoff picture remains tight as the regular season nears its conclusion.
