Beautiful Sunday for baseball as Connor Sebald will be on the mound this afternoon. McKinstry stands in he's ready to lead off as the designated hitter to left field shallow Richard will have a drop in front of him. A lead off knock for Zach McKinstry his third hit of the series. Torkelson draws a walk first to the board for the Tigers on the Sunday. Bring up the left handed hitting Kerry Carpenter fisted to left dropping and it falls in front of a charging Grichuk bases are loaded for the Tigers a couple of hits and a walk. Here comes Harvey or Baez. But if you're Connor you've got the right guy that you wanted to play it in Harvey Baez you could you could easily strike him out by one deep left field. That's out of here a grand slam for Baez and the Tigers are up early in Colorado. Absolute missile off his back Grand Slam home run for Harvey Baez and five batters in this with these Tiger fans for nothing. Tigers for the struggling veteran just his sixth home run of the year. It is his eighth career Grand Slam and they're up against Matt Manning making his fourth start of the year. Jerickson for four last night and seven for 15 on the homestead this ball is well hit to right and it is going to be off the wall. The center fielder Maresnick will help out and it's a lead off double for Krofot. That was a heck of a demand from Jerickson really was. So now the Rockies have the first two on as they look to counter punch first out of the inning. Here's Elias Diaz line drive left field and a diving catch made by Verling laid out hauled it in big out for the Tigers here in the first the diving grab. If he doesn't get it that's a couple of runs in the air shallow left center. Maresnick's got a beat on it and Matt Manning settles in after giving up a shot a double and a hit by pitch to start. He gets the next three just like in the first inning the Rockies got that leadoff man aboard the Rockies threatened back in that first inning. They can hope they can do it here. Here's Castro and Harrell with a base hit to the vacant shortstop area. Grichuk's got to get there and then behind the moving in the second is Castro. So Randle kind of baited Matt Verling to throw to third. The throw was off line and now the Rockies have runners in second and third no one out Montero. Great opportunity and this ball was driven to center fielding deep going back Maresnick gave it. Somehow Grichuk will tag and score and now heading towards third. He's got to get there and will is Castro over the shoulder grab incredible play by Jake Maresnick in center field sacrifice fly great running catch by Maresnick Grichuk scores Brenton Doyle with a runner at third and one out Brenton Doyle and he's going to get the job done here with a fly ball to deep right. Castro can long stride it toward the plate and the Rockies have their second run. Love the at bats from the two young players Spencer Torkelson leads things off for Detroit in the third it's the two three and four hitters. This is laced down the left field line that'll find the corner Torkelson will dig for two. He'll make it easily a stand up double to start the third Ibanez struck out in that first inning in the air left field. Grichuk going back leaps it's over his head and off the wall. Torkelson will be held at third back to back doubles for Detroit here in the inning sets a stage and a bounce back inning for him with Kerry Carpenter coming to the plate list one deep left field Grichuk going back still going back. That ball is gone a home run a three run blast for Kerry Carpenter and the Tigers extend their lead. Kerry Carpenter goes opposite field three run shot Tigers break it open in the third they've got a seven to lead fourth inning here at Coors Field a couple of big home runs Rogers ambushing deep left field out of here that Rogers drills his 11th of the season eight to Detroit number 11 for Jake Rogers Tiger bats are booming here this afternoon in Vendor eight to lead and he just dropped that one over the left field wall and another run on the board for the Tigers this afternoon. It's been staked to a six run lead. Now there's two on one out in the fourth inning bottom part of the order. Hilarious Montero deep drive sacrifice fly his first time up in the air to right center pretty well. It's going to carry Carpenter it's going to get a run home in the second is Montero with a one scoring double Castro the third as Brian heads to the dugout get high fives eight to three couple Aubrey eyes now on the day already for Montero a big at bat Brent Doyle one out runners at second and third the Rockies are down five in the fifth. This ball pretty well hit to right and it's playable out there for Carpenter. It's going to be another sack fly for Doyle. He makes it eight to four. So Brent Doyle who's had some issues with swing and miss gets the ball in play to the outfield twice but to produce runs. So far pops out one out fifth inning eight four Tigers on top that's rolling the hole in a diving stop by a Banez gathers and throws out McMahon. Nice wow. Andy Abana is flashing some leather here in the fifth sliding attempt by Banez knocks it down from the ground throws the first to get McMahon Andy Banez just keeps stealing hits in the four hole and on the hill. Yesterday's starter is not travel ball. Brandon White which a kid by a pitch and scored a run back in the second inning. This ball the deep left. This ball's got a chance. And it's got Randall Gretchen with his third of the year and the Rockies are within three. And it's got there's that first Coors Field home run for Randall Gretchen. But wait for that for a while. One brought back Bucky's makes an interesting eight to five at Detroit. That's a walk. So now two on at the time run is going to come up in Ezekiel Tovar number two hitter Ezekiel Tovar gets a chance to hit this in. That is a base hit for Tovar. Here comes Doyle with the Rockies sixth one. Tovar's got a 15 game hitting streak. He stays hot and he stays clutch. The Rockies with it to forty one RBI is now on the season for this youngster McKinstry. It's the base hit with one out here in the seventh inning. Spencer Torkelson's one for two today. Rips one left field Gretchen gets it going back. That ball is out of here. Spencer Torkelson with a shot ten six Tigers boom just carried the left center field fence. Spencer Torkelson number twelve on the season big to run home run here in the seventh. Tigers take a ten six lead Matt Vierling now playing in right field is old for three. Vierling shoots one down the first baseline. That's where he had the triple yesterday. He'll dig for two and maybe three. He will and he's in there easily. Second triple of the series for Matt Vierling. It comes with one out in the eighth Vierling the righty with a triple short the righty draws a walk. Rodgers draws a walk. Now Jake Merisnick get a chance to face a lefty. He doesn't get a chance to face many Merisnick a deep fly ball to left and it is out of here a grand slam for Jake Merisnick.

How about it Jake Merisnick second grand slam of the day for the Tigers and it's a 14 six lead here in the eight finally gets an official at bat. And when he does it's a it's a single and it got the rally caps going Jertson a double in the first ball driven a deep left center field long run for. He won't get there.
