Chicago White Sox center fielder Adam Haseley raced back to track down Spencer Torkelson’s long fly ball.
Haseley jumped and almost made a spectacular catch. Instead it was a go-ahead RBI double for Torkelson.
The Detroit Tigers scored three runs in the seventh against reliever Joe Kelly to rally and beat the Sox 7-3 in front of 24,685 on Saturday at Comerica Park.
“Joe has been unhittable for three weeks-plus, so I was really happy with him being on the mound and I’ll be happy with him being on the mound tomorrow,” Sox manager Pedro Grifol said.
Kelly had been one of the more effective relievers in baseball recently, retiring 34 of the last 36 batters he faced coming into Saturday.
He entered with the Sox leading 3-2 after a two-out, three-run double by Gavin Sheets in the top of the seventh.
The Tigers tied it with one out in the seventh on a solo homer to right by Zach McKinstry.
DJ LeMahieu said he felt “close” to clicking after Friday’s loss to the Padres, but he didn’t have the results to show for it. That changed Saturday.
LeMahieu, who entered the game slashing .133/.188/.133 with zero extra-base hits over his last 32 plate appearances, generated the Yankees’ first two runs against San Diego on Saturday.
Captain Kangaroo has left the building and Dirty Harry has arrived at the Broncos Headquarters.

Kiz: The vibe inside Broncos HQ has changed dramatically, as anyone who has worked with Sean Payton and Nathaniel Hackett can attest. Whenever Payton talks, I hear Bill Parcell’s voice. There’s an old-school, no-guff-allowed edge to his words.
The Rockies don’t like the term “rebuilding.”
“I hate that word,” owner Dick Monfort told me in January. “I guess the connotation on rebuilding is you just get rid of everybody. You try to draft low, which we’re not (going to do). We’re not trying to get the first pick. We’re not going to tank.
After eight years as a minor leaguer, Matt Krook is one step closer to his big league debut.
The Yankees added the left-hander to their active roster Saturday morning. He replaces Randy Vasquez, who made his major league debut Friday night against the Padres. Vasquez mostly impressed in a loss, but his immediate return to Triple-A was expected since the Yankees needed a spot starter Friday and a fresh arm moving forward.
Krook can be that guy, as the converted starter has been working in a multi-inning relief role with the RailRiders.
Aaron Boone spent Friday’s loss in Brian Cashman’s box at Yankee Stadium, as the manager served a one-game suspension for his recent conduct toward umpires.
“Weird experience,” Boone said Saturday while reflecting on the suspension.
Boone was ejected from Thursday’s game against the Orioles. It was his fourth ejection of the year and his third in the Yankees’ last 10 games.
The manager was tossed after arguing Edwin Moscoso’s strike zone.
