Its Tuesday, June 17 and the Pirates (29-44) are in Detroit to take on the Tigers (46-27). Bailey Falter is slated to take the mound for Pittsburgh against Casey Mize for Detroit.

The Tigers’ offense, for the first six innings, was limited to a pair of solo home runs off Reds lefty starter Wade Miley. Jahmai Jones, who came in 6 for 11 in his first seven games, launched a 2-1 cutter over the bullpen in left.

Right-handed reliever Carlos Hernández doesn't have any minor league options remaining, so he will join the Detroit Tigers' active roster immediately.

The Reds took two of three against the Tigers over the weekend outscoring Detroit 19-5 in the two wins. Elly De La Cruz drove in three and scored three in Sunday's 8-4 win in Motown. The Twins were swept by the Astros and have now lost four in a row. Sunday, Minnesota gave up single runs in the ninth and tenth innings and lost, 2-1.
