It's Thursday, May 8, and the Tigers (23-13) are in Denver to take on the Rockies (6-29). Tanner Gordon is slated to take the mound for Colorado, while Detroit has not named a starter. This is the second of a double-header scheduled at 6:10 PM ET or approximately an hour after the conclusion of the first game.

The Detroit Tigers and Colorado Rockies play the first game of a doubleheader and second game of their 3-game series in Denver on Thursday.

After five innings of scoreless baseball, it only took Torkelson a few pitches to break the tie, slapping a double into the gap in right center field and scoring ghost runner Riley Greene from second base in the top of the 10th. Detroit added an insurance run as Torkelson scored on a bobbled fly ball in the outfield off the bat of Trey Sweeney.

The series opener between the Tigers and Rockies at Coors Field, originally scheduled for 6:40 p.m. MT/8:40 p.m. ET on Tuesday, has been postponed due to inclement weather. The game will be made up as part of a traditional doubleheader on Thursday,
