Tigers, White Sox: Akil Baddoo and Victor Reyes drove in two runs apiece and the Tigers stalled the White Sox’s drive for the AL Central title with a 5-3 victory on Tuesday in Detroit. The magic number for the White Sox to clinch the division remained at two games ahead of the Indians’ home game against the Royals. Reyes had four of the Tigers’ 16 hits. Daz Cameron reached base four times and scored two runs for the Tigers, who have won the first two games of the three-game series. “Just seems like we’re not catching breaks, but we’re not putting ourselves in a lot of positions to be able to get wins,” said White Sox starting pitcher Dallas Keuchel, who gave up two runs on 11 hits in five innings. “That’s not a great combo to have right now.” The White Sox have lost five of their last seven games and manager Tony La Russa is concerned that his team is “treading water” as the postseason approaches. “We have to win at a higher percentage than we’re winning right now,” he said. “You’ve got to be able to execute in this league. Our execution is not where it has to be in all phases.” Bryan Garcia (3-2) pitched 1 1/3 scoreless innings of relief for Tigers starter Tyler Alexander, who went five innings. Michael Fulmer got the last four outs for his 11th save. “Our team finds ways to win,” said Tigers manager A.J. Hinch, whose team has won four straight and seven of its last nine games. “We put pressure on the opponent, we hung in there. Today was a really weird game. Both teams left double-digit guys on base. Both teams found a lot of hits (but) had a hard time pushing runs across until the end and we came out with the big hit.” Jace Fry (0-1) gave up three runs on four hits in 1 2/3 innings of relief of Keuchel. Luis Robert led the White Sox offense with two hits and two RBIs. Robert gave the White Sox a 2-0 lead in the third with a two-run single through a drawn-in infield. The Tigers scored in the bottom of the inning on Baddoo’s RBI single. Baddoo’s second run-scoring hit tied the score at 2 in the fourth. The Tigers nearly took the lead in the sixth when Reyes was called safe at home on Baddoo’s fielder’s choice grounder. The call was overturned upon video review. The Tigers broke the deadlock in the seventh on Niko Goodrum’s RBI single. Reyes ripped a two-run single to give his team a three-run lead. “We’re all going in the same direction,” Reyes said through an interpreter. “Every time we go out on the field, we go out to win, regardless of whoever we’re playing.” Tim Anderson’s single in the eighth knocked in the White Sox’s final run. The White Sox left 13 runners on base. “We had a chance to blow that game open and score more runs,” La Russa said. ... The White Sox are hopeful LHP Carlos Rodon will be ready for the postseason despite experiencing soreness in his pitching arm during and after Monday’s outing against the Tigers. Rodon, 28, threw only 69 pitches in three innings before leaving the game, which the White Sox lost 4-3. “He was sore this morning,” La Russa said Tuesday. “Hopefully its normal soreness. We’ll do a bunch of stuff to get him ready and keep our fingers crossed that Wednesday he’s good to go.” Rodon has been dealing with arm fatigue throughout the later stages of the season. The White Sox have given him extra rest, including a stint on the IL. Multiple MRIs have come back clean.
