The Detroit Tigers will try and stay hot against the Oakland Athletics at 1:10 p.m. Saturday for the second home game of the season.

The Tigers are 6-1, though none of the victories was easy. Detroit won its home opener 5-4 over the Oakland A's on Friday afternoon behind Gio Urshela's RBI double in the eighth inning. The Tigers had a three-run lead on Friday, but ace Tarik Skubal was unable to hold it. "We've been good in close games so far," Detroit manager A.J. Hinch said.

Gio Urshela's two-out double in the eighth inning brought in the go-ahead run and the Detroit Tigers defeated the Oakland Athletics 5-4 in their home opener on Friday.

Mark Canha left the Athletics in free agency after the 2021 MLB season on good terms, but for a few moments Friday, his reaction after a sixth-inning homer led some to believe he felt a certain way towards his former team. After Canha crushed a 414-foot solo homer off A's starter JP Sears in the Tigers 5-4 win at Comerica Park, one camera angle made it seem as if the veteran outfielder and designated hitter was staring into Oakland's dugout.

The Detroit Tigers beat the Oakland Athletics, 5-4 at Comerica Park Opening Day, but not without help from Tarik Skubal's teammates.
