What happened: The Detroit Tigers marked the Fourth of July with an afternoon game at Globe Life Field, with first pitch set for 4:05 PM ET. The holiday matchup continues Detroit's road stay in Arlington, with television and radio coverage carrying the game back to the Detroit market.

Why it matters: Holiday games are a midseason showcase, and every game in the 2026 regular season carries standings weight as the schedule reaches its July stretch. The matinee comes at the same Arlington ballpark where Detroit opened this series earlier in the week.

What to watch: First pitch is set for 4:05 PM ET in Arlington. Watch how the Tigers close out the road series before the schedule moves on from Globe Life Field.
