Tigers fall to Twins in final August game at Target Field

The Detroit Tigers concluded August with an 11-1 loss against the Minnesota Twins at Target Field on Monday. Starter Jackson Jobe allowed five runs over five innings, receiving limited defensive and offensive support as the team dropped to 11 games under.500. Hao-Yu Lee provided the Tigers' only run with a solo home run in the sixth inning off Taj Bradley. The Twins offense capitalized on defensive lapses and erratic pitching, including a six-run surge across the fifth and sixth innings. Detroit finishes the month with an 11-16 record, marking a decline from their earlier contention for a wild-card position. The team is currently 63-74 on the season, continuing a stretch where they have lost 13 of their last 16 games.
