Tigers Edge White Sox

In a game heard on WHOW Sunday, Jack Flaherty pitched six effective innings in his Detroit debut and Andy Ibáñez snapped a tie with a pinch-hit single in the ninth, sending the Tigers to a 3-2 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Sunday.

 

Kerry Carpenter and Jake Rogers homered for the Tigers, who are 3-0 for the first time since 2016. Each of their wins in their season-opening series at Chicago was decided by one run.

 

Paul DeJong and Korey Lee went deep for the White Sox.

 

 

Fedde struck out seven and allowed five hits in 4 2/3 innings in his Chicago debut. 

 

 

The right-hander signed a $15 million, two-year contract in December after pitching in South Korea last season.

 

Tyler Holton (1-0) earned the win by striking out four in 1 1/3 innings. Jason Foley got Andrew Vaughn and Braden Shewmake to ground out to earn his second save.

 

Chris Flexen will face Atlanta and RHP Charlie Morton on Monday. Flexen signed with Chicago in free agency.
