The Tigers are coming off a 2-1 series win at the Chicago White Sox, wrapping up the set with a 1-0 victory Wednesday. Detroit cashed as a -142 favorite and the Under (8) hit. Rookie SP Troy Melton allowed just 1 hit and struck out 6 over 5 scoreless innings,

The best example came at the end of practice. The Dolphins’ offense had the same situational drill as the Lions: Down 24-20, ball on the 48-yard line, 59 seconds left, fourth quarter. It didn’t go half as well as it did for the Lions offense.

▶ The Lions dominated the first day of joint practices against the Dolphins, full stop. The offense dominated; the defense dominated; even punter Jack Fox put a ball out of bounds at the 2-yard line.
