Holding Hudson for a save situation, Roberts went with Petersen in the eighth. He walked the first batter he faced and balked him to second, putting the winning run in scoring position. But he retired the next three batters.Chris Taylor punched a single into right field with one out in the top of the ninth and Roberts sent James Outman out as a pinch-hitter. Tigers manager A.J. Hinch countered by bringing in lefty reliever Tyler Holton to face the left-handed Outman.
