Detroit Tigers baseball is back on Saturday. The team continues the 2017 regular season as the Tigers take on the Red Sox in Detroit’s first home stand of the season. Here’s what you need to know to watch.

Detroit Tigers players staged an excellent comeback on Friday afternoon.

The Tigers had initially jumped out to a 4-0 lead over the Boston Red Sox in the first game of the season at Comerica Park.

This was thanks to a pair of RBI from Victor Martinez, and a two-run home run by James McCann.

However, Boston scored a combined five runs in the eighth inning off Bruce Rondon, Alex Wilson and Francisco Rodriguez.

In the following inning, Nick Castellanos and Miguel Cabrera opened the frame with strikeouts—then the comeback began.

Victor Martinez drew a walk, and was taken out for pinch runner Andrew Romine.

Romine would advance to second on walk from outfielder Justin Upton. Following that free pass, Mikie Mahtook stepped in as a pinch hitter for fellow outfielder Tyler Collins.

The former first-round pick of the Rays smacked a double into left field, scoring Romine to tie the game.

Upton took third base on the play and would end up scoring the winning run later in the inning as JaCoby Jones drew a bases-loaded walk on a full count.
