The Dodgers came back late and walked it off against the Tigers on Tuesday. It wasn't the most high-scoring output from the offense, but they had 11 hits and were the victims of bad luck on a lot of hard contact. Max Muncy ended up the hero with a walk-off single in the 9th. Ryan Pepiot was the bulk guy and he delivered six innings of one-run ball …

The Dodgers took down the Tigers with a big night from the offense and a solid night from Lance Lynn. The right-hander was advised to 'let it eat' and empty the tank earlier in the game as opposed to trying to throw seven innings.

Lance Lynn was not good and it caused the Dodgers to try and recover from a 7-1 deficit, which they almost did.

Clayton Kershaw didn't have his best stuff but still pitched well enough to pick up career win No. 209, and put himself in a tie for second place on the Dodgers' all-time list.
