In a tightly contested game, Casey Mize delivered a stellar performance, pitching over six scoreless innings against the Boston Red Sox, despite the Detroit Tigers ultimately losing 1-0 in extra innings. Mize struck out seven batters and allowed just three hits, showcasing his control with a 62% strike rate and a 65% first-pitch strike rate. His four-seam fastball, which made up 44% of his pitches at a velocity of 94.0 mph, was pivotal in establishing counts early in the game.
