The Detroit Tigers were able to use a strong start and capitalize on a last-minute change from the San Francisco Giants to win their three-game finale Thursday afternoon.

It didn't look promising for the Detroit Tigers Wednesday night, but one inning almost turned the tide against the San Francisco Giants.

Johnny Cueto retired the final 19 batters he faced, and the Royals beat the Astros, 7-2, in the decisive Game 5 of the American League Division Series in Kansas City on Wednesday night.
