Jack Flaherty found his footing last night, as the Tigers blanked the Rays 8-0. The struggling starter allowed five hits and struck out six over five innings to earn his first win of the season. Gleyber Torres returned from the injury list and blasted a lead-off home run. Wenceel Pérez and Riley Greene also homered.

To make room for Torres on the roster, Hao Yu Lee was sent back to Toledo.
Javier Báez won’t be back with the Tigers anytime soon. His lingering ankle sprain prompted a visit to a specialist yesterday, who recommended that Báez be shut down for at least a few days to help the healing process.
Justin Verlander is a step closer to returning. He tossed five shutout innings in a rehab start for Toledo last night. The Mud Hens clobbered the Iowa Cubs 16-1.
The Brewers routed the Giants 8-3 last evening. Kyle Harrison pitched into the sixth, allowed one run, struck out 12, and earned his seventh win of the season. Jake Bauers hit a three-run homer.
The Brewers host the Giants again tonight. Milwaukee has not named a starter. Logan Webb will pitch for San Francisco.
