Tigers 4, Steers 3, 8 innings
The Steers had little trouble making contact at the plate Friday night. Tigers’ starting pitcher Wyatt Waters gave up five of the Steers’ six hits and relied on his defense to keep the Steers at bay. It was the defensive play of Tigers shortstop Bodee Mausser and second baseman Christian De La Cruz that proved problematic for the Steers.
