MLB: Tigers 5, Twins 4

The Minnesota Twins and Detroit Tigers made it very clear on Saturday afternoon that they do not like each other.

In the top of the 3rd inning, Tigers’ JaCoby Jones was forced to leave the game after he took a 90 MPH fastball off his face.

The Tigers didn’t like that one bit, and let the Twins know two innings later when Detroit starter Matthew Boyd threw behind Miguel Sano. That’s when the chaos started.

Sano ended up smoking catcher James McCann in the mask with a right hand and was immediately ejected from the game. Boyd was thrown out as well in order to keep the game under control.

The Tigers went on to win the game 5-4.
