Tigers Come Back Late to Top Cubs, 6-3
In the 6-3 Detroit (VSL) win over Chicago (VSL), the impact of Juan Ortega was substantial. Ortega, who is tied for 4th in the VSL with a 10.3 K/9 rate, went 2-4 with 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Detroit (VSL) now has a record of 28-18 with the win.

The outcome might have been different had it not been for Ortega. In the top of the eighth inning, when the Tigers were trailing 3-2, Ortega delivered a two-out 2-run single for Detroit (VSL), giving his team the lead.

"Every win gets us closer to our ultimate goal," said Ortega.
