DETROIT — The Detroit Tigers did what they couldn't on Tuesday night, overcoming a ninth-inning deficit and beating the San Diego Padres, 4-3, Wednesday on a walk-off double from Victor Reyes.
Jeimer Candelario went 3 for 4 with a double and two RBIs and Tarik Skubal went six innings with three hits, two runs, no earned runs, two walks and a strikeout for the Tigers (40-59), who've now let untimely miscues in two straight games steal the life from a home series that started with a rousing Tigers victory.
Candelario roped a leadoff double to left center — his eighth hit of the series — in the ninth inning. Akil Baddoo came into pinch run and advanced to third on a soft ground ball from Schoop that went for a base hit, opening the door for Reyes' clutch hit to win the game.
