Louisville Bats 18, Toledo Mud Hens 4 (box) What should have been Sawyer Gipson-Long’s first full start after returning from the injured list turned into an absolute beatdown as Louisville mauled the Hens’ starter and then just going through the bullpen like there was no tomorrow.

Kenley Jansen claims third place on MLB’s all-time saves leader list
Kenley Jansen needed little introduction when the Detroit Tigers signed the 38-year-old closer to a free agent deal back in December. He’s one of the truly great relievers in the game’s long history.

Tigers claim RHP Yoniel Curet, move Parker Meadows to the 60-day IL
