Diamondbacks Lose to Tigers, 3-1
It was a fun time at Tiger Stadium, where the Arizona Diamondbacks and Detroit Tigers tangled.

Clay Buchholz pitched well enough to win, but it was not to be. The Arizona Diamondbacks, despite Buchholz's fine outing, dropped a 3-1 decision to the Detroit Tigers at Tiger Stadium. Detroit reliever Frank Eufemia picked up the win, upping his record to 2-0. Clay Buchholz absorbed the loss. Julio Teheran picked up the save, his 3rd.

The Tigers got a big at-bat from first baseman Freddie Freeman. For the game, Freeman went 1-4 with a double, while adding 2 RBI. In the bottom of the third, with runners on 1st and 2nd, he stroked a 2-run double. His 5th double of the season gave Detroit a 3-1 lead.

"We'll put this win in our pocket and go after the next one," said Freeman.

The Diamondbacks fall to 8-11 and continue their lackluster start to the 1969 season.
