**DETROIT, MI** – The Detroit Tigers completed a three-game sweep of the Kansas City Royals on Saturday, securing a 3-1 victory at Comerica Park. A three-run home run by Spencer Torkelson in the fifth inning proved to be the difference-maker, providing all the offense the Tigers needed.

The Royals’ Freddy Fermin provided the lone bright spot for Kansas City, hitting a solo home run in the seventh inning. He collected two of the Royals’ six hits in the losing effort.
The series finale is scheduled for Sunday afternoon at Comerica Park and will be broadcast on FanDuel Sports Network Detroit. The Tigers, now 13-8, continue their winning streak against a struggling Royals team, who fall to 8-14.
