Tigers' bullpen day slips away, ending 11-game win streak at Rate Field
Briefly

The Detroit Tigers faced a challenging game against the Chicago White Sox, suffering an 8-1 defeat that highlighted their bullpen's shortcomings. Four relievers allowed runs, and the offense struggled to capitalize, leading to the end of an 11-game winning streak at Rate Field. White Sox rookie Shane Smith excelled with 5 1/3 scoreless innings, while the Tigers managed only one run late in the game. Manager A.J. Hinch noted the team's defense faltered, giving the White Sox additional scoring opportunities that proved costly.
We gave them extra opportunities, said Tigers manager A.J. Hinch. We kind of got what we wanted a couple times and didn't finish plays.
His ball darts a little bit. We did not hold the zone as well. Some of that's by his doing, some of it's by ours.
