Dillon Dingler belts two homers, Tigers beat Cubs in 10
Dillon Dingler powered the Detroit Tigers to an 8-6 extra-innings win over the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field, homering twice, collecting four hits, and delivering a go-ahead RBI single in the 10th inning as Detroit seized control late in a back-and-forth game. The win capped a dramatic rally after Ian Happ and the Cubs tied the game with a late surge, while Kenley Jansen contributed a nerve‑wracking ninth inning before the Tigers pulled away in extras, aided by Spencer Torkelson’s two‑run single. In addition to Dingler’s performance, Riley Greene opened the scoring with a three‑run homer, and Dingler’s solo shot in the eighth extended his multi‑homer game count; this marked another big showing in Detroit’s post‑All‑Star break surge and Dingler’s continued hot stretch. Article 3 highlights Dingler’s four‑hit game, including two homers, underscoring his recurring power and all-around contribution. Separately, Raleigh delivered a late-inning slam for the Rangers in a different game context, followed by a double-play ball that still resulted in an RBI due to an error, highlighting his sixth career slam this season. Overall, the Tigers’ cliffhanger win showcased a burst of offense from Dingler and Greene, plus timely depth pitching, while other reports noted the Cubs’ early damage and Detroit’s resilient finish.
