The Detroit Tigers lost 7-5 to the Boston Red Sox in extra innings on Friday, despite a three-run homer from Kerry Carpenter that broke a 21-inning scoreless streak. Casey Mize returned from a left hamstring strain, allowing four runs over six innings in his first appearance since June. Relievers Shelby Miller and Tyler Holton gave up crucial home runs in the 10th inning to Ceddanne Rafaela and Jarren Duran, respectively. The Tigers activated Mize from the 60-day injured list and designated left-handed pitcher Joey Wentz for assignment, while transferring right-hander Alex Faedo to the 60-day IL due to a shoulder strain. The Tigers are now 5.5 games behind in the American League wild-card race with 26 games left in the season.
