Riley Greene hit his 31st homer for the Detroit Tigers, and Jack Flaherty gave up eight runs in five-plus innings in Sunday's loss to the Kansas City Royals.

After the contest, the real Rogers led the Tigers to a 4-2 win against the Royals on Saturday in the second of three games in the series. Not only did the 30-year-old catcher drive in two runs on two hits, but he also guided the pitching staff that limited the Royals to two runs.

Despite losing the series, the Royals ensured there wouldn’t be a Motor City sweep at Comerica Park. First baseman Vinnie Pasquantino spearheaded a six-run third inning as the Royals batted around against Tigers starter Jack Flaherty.
