As the Detroit Tigers trailed 3-0, it seemed clear their unpredictable season was coming to a close under the sunny skies at Comerica Park on Wednesday. Many fans were ready to move on.

But then—everything changed. The Tigers’ bats woke up in spectacular fashion, exploding for eight runs in just three innings with three home runs to storm past the Seattle Mariners 9-3.

Next stop: Seattle, where ace Tarik Skubal is slated to pitch in Friday’s decisive game, though the start time hasn’t been confirmed. The Mariners have beaten Skubal before, but with solid run support, Detroit has a real shot.

Javier Báez crushed a two-run homer, Riley Greene added one of his own, and Gleyber Torres joined the power surge with another blast. It felt like a throwback to the Tigers’ strong first half of the season.

As the comeback unfolded, fans started flooding each other’s phones with messages of renewed hope. The Comerica Park crowd was electric—and for now, the Tigers’ season lives on.
