The Detroit Tigers edged the Toronto Blue Jays 3–2 on May 15 at Comerica Park in a low-scoring affair that fell well short of Vegas's over/under projection of 1 run. Detroit's pitching staff struck out 6 batters while allowing just 5 hits and 2 earned runs, posting a 4.02 ERA despite issuing 2 walks. Toronto countered with 9 strikeouts across 6.1 innings but surrendered 7 hits and 3 earned runs, reflecting a 4.10 ERA. Offensively, both teams struggled to generate power—neither side homered—and Detroit scraped together just 7 hits with a .713 OPS while Toronto managed 5 hits and a .683 OPS, underlining a slugfest-free contest defined by contact pitching and limited offensive execution. The Tigers' clean defense (0 errors) proved marginal in a one-run decision. Detroit's ability to win despite anemic offensive output suggests pitching depth could stabilize a middle-of-the-pack rotation heading into June.
