On Wednesday afternoon, the Detroit Tigers defeated the Tampa Bay Rays with a final score of two runs to one. This outcome was notable for several reasons; it secured the first win of the season for Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander, who outpitched Rays starter Chris Archer in the contest, and it prevented the Tigers from being swept in the three-game series by Tampa Bay.
