TORK BOMB https://t.co/VAZK2xgokc Via @tigers on X

What happened: Spencer Torkelson launched a home run for the Detroit Tigers, a drive the team's account celebrated as a "TORK BOMB." Social posts pegged the shot at 411 feet and credited it with doubling Detroit's lead.

Why it matters: Torkelson's power has been a swing factor for a Detroit lineup leaning on its middle of the order. Another big fly adds to his home run total and gives the Tigers breathing room in a game they were already controlling.

What to watch: Watch whether Torkelson can string together a multi-homer stretch and whether Detroit's bullpen protects the expanded lead the rest of the way.
