AJ Hinch Stays Calm as Tigers’ AL Central Lead Shrinks to One Game

Detroit’s 15½-game cushion is nearly gone after nine losses in ten, capped by an 0-6 homestand. “We’re going to wake up tomorrow in first place… destiny controlled by us,” Hinch said after a 6-2 loss to Atlanta. Detroit faces Cleveland next, with Tarik Skubal (13-5, 2.23 ERA) opposing Gavin Williams in Tuesday’s pivotal opener.
