The Tigers lost to the Houston Astros 4-2 on Wednesday at Daikin Park, concluding a disappointing road series. With the loss, Detroit has won just two of 13 road series this season and now holds a record 14 games under.500. Manager AJ Hinch emphasized the need for series wins to gain momentum, particularly with the trade deadline approaching on August 3. Key injuries were a concern, as Gleyber Torres returned to the injured list, and Wenceel Perez missed the game due to facial injuries. Casey Mize made a return but struggled with command, allowing three runs in 4⅔ innings before leaving the game after yielding an RBI double to Yordan Alvarez.
