Rookie pitcher Casey Mize delivered an impressive outing, tossing seven scoreless innings for the Detroit Tigers to earn the first win of his major league career. Fellow rookie Akil Baddoo also contributed significantly for Detroit by hitting another home run. These performances helped the Tigers secure a 6-2 victory over the Houston Astros on Monday night. The game held added significance as it was manager A.J. Hinch's initial return to Houston since his departure from the Astros organization.
