Tigers' Spencer Torkelson: Hits 10th home run Wednesday
Spencer Torkelson went 2-for-4 with a double, a home run, an additional run scored and three total RBI in Wednesday's 7-1 win over the Rays.Torkelson went deep with a runner on in the sixth inning, giving him 10 long balls for the year and helping the Detroit Tigers inch closer to a playoff spot. It's been a choppy season for the 25-year-old, and his struggles led to a demotion to Triple-A Toledo in June. It's a step back from the 31 home runs and 94 RBI Torkelson produced in 2023, but he's been better since getting recalled in August, and he'll turn the page even further if he helps lead Detroit on a postseason run for the first time in his career.
