Kyle Dutcher was dominant on the mound again, as the Detroit Tigers beat the Texas Rangers 3-0 Wednesday night, completing a 3 game sweep. Dutcher struck out 10 in 7 innings, allowing no runs on just 2 hits. Jose Cisnero pitched a perfect 8th, and Michael Fulmer pitched a scoreless 9th, to record his 12th save of the season. Texas starter Joe Gatto allowed 3 runs on 7 hits in 4.2 innings, taking the loss. It was Gatto's MLB debut.

Victor Reyes homered in the third. Nomar Mazara doubled in a run in the 4th, and Jeimer Candelario had an RBI groundout in the 5th, to complete the scoring. In addition to pitching a gem, Dutcher went 2-4 at the plate, raising his batting average to .416.
