Hinch became the 75th manager in Major League Baseball history to reach the 900-win mark, joining the ranks of some of the game’s most respected leaders, including Bruce Bochy, Bob Melvin, and Terry Francona.

With the game tied in the 10th inning, Spencer Torkelson ripped a go-ahead double to score Riley Greene, and Trey Sweeney added insurance with a bloop single that plated another run. Reliever Will Vest pitched two scoreless innings in relief to earn the win, as the Tigers improved to 23–13 and maintained their spot atop the American League Central standings.
