After trailing 4-0 early, the Tigers rallied to force extra innings, but couldn't score in the 10th to lose, 8-4, to Pittsburgh.

"I don't think I met the standard of who I think I am," Detroit Tigers left-hander Tarik Skubal said. "I don't think I was very good."

Pérez gave the Tigers a 4-3 lead with an RBI triple in the sixth and Báez made it a two-run game with a leadoff homer in the seventh. Greene hit a 436-foot home run to right later in the inning, making it 7-3. Carmen Mlodzinski (1-5) allowed four runs in two innings of relief.
