DETROIT (AP) — Yohan Ramírez committed two consecutive errors in the ninth inning, enabling the Detroit Tigers to secure a 4-3 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday, marking their second straight comeback win against the NL West leaders.
Wenceel Pérez executed a sacrifice bunt to advance the runners during the final at-bat. Ramírez then made an errant throw to third, allowing Justyn-Henry Malloy to score the second run of the inning and clinch the win. In the previous at-bat, the right-hander failed to field Ryan Vilade’s sacrifice bunt, which advanced Malloy to second base.
Zach McKinstry hit a leadoff triple in the ninth and scored on Malloy’s single after manager A.J. Hinch brought him in as a pinch-hitter.
“Hung an 0-2 breaking ball to McKinstry for a triple, and that sort of opened the flood gates,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts commented.
Ramírez (0-5) allowed three hits and two runs in an inning, just a day after surrendering Gio Urshela’s two-run homer in the 10th inning of an 11-9 loss, where the Dodgers gave up seven runs in the last two innings.
Alex Faedo (4-1) earned the win after securing the final out in the top of the ninth.
Los Angeles now holds a record of 48-2 when leading after eight innings, with both losses occurring in Detroi
