The Tigers scored a two-out run in the second. Niko Goodrum ripped a double and Baddoo followed with a liner that eluded center fielder Reynolds and bounced to the wall for a triple.

After the first two batters struck out in the bottom of the fifth, Jones tied the game for the Tigers with an opposite-field homer.

Jones robbed Todd Frazier of an extra-base hit in the seventh with a running catch into the left-center gap.

Baddoo chased Phillip Ervin to the left-field wall with a long fly in the bottom of the inning. The ball bounced off Ervin's glove and into the field of play as Baddoo cruised into second with a double.

Jones ripped a one-out single off Duane Underwood Jr. to put runners on the corners, but Howard came in and recorded two outs, leaving the runners stranded.

Pittsburgh took the lead in the next inning. Adam Frazier ripped a one-out single off Cisnero. With two outs, Frazier advanced to second on a wild pitch by Gregory Soto.

Reynolds walked before Moran and Gonzalez stroked run-scoring singles.
