DETROIT — Kerry Carpenter launched a two-out, walk-off home run to right field, sending the Tigers to a dramatic 4-3 win over the Cleveland Guardians in the first of two games Tuesday at a near empty and frigid Comerica Park.

Carpenter blasted a 3-2 pitch from reliever James Karinchak. It was the Tigers' four straight win and their third straight walk-off win.

The game was tied at 3 and the Guardians had runners at the corners with one out. Cleveland manager Terry Francona sent left-handed hitting Josh Naylor up as a pinch-hitter against Tigers rookie right-hander Mason Englert.
