Pérez gave the Tigers a 4-3 lead with an RBI triple in the sixth and Báez made it a two-run game with a leadoff homer in the seventh. Greene hit a 436-foot home run to right later in the inning, making it 7-3.

Javier Baez hit a pair of solo home runs as the host Detroit Tigers downed the Pittsburgh Pirates 7-3 on Tuesday.

Javier Báez isn’t necessarily comfortable being the kid called to the front of the class. But there was no way his teammates weren’t going to celebrate him before the game Tuesday, the day he secured 10 years of MLB service time.
