After trailing 4-0 early, the Tigers rallied to force extra innings, but couldn't score in the 10th to lose, 8-4, to Pittsburgh.

The Detroit Tigers were scheduled to play two games against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Thursday to make up for a rainout on Wednesday night, with ace Tarik Skubal set to take the mound in the first matchup against Andrew Heaney. Thursday's game was postponed due to an inclement weather forecast as dark clouds filled the sky above Comerica Park.
