DETROIT (AP) — Wenceel Pérez singled with two out in the 11th inning and the Detroit Tigers rallied three times to beat the Kansas City Royals 6-5 on Saturday night. The Tigers trailed in the ninth, 10th and 11th innings, but rallied each time to end a five-game losing streak. Kansas City had won five straight. Parker Meadows led off the 11th with an RBI triple and the Royals intentionally walked Javier Báez. Jake Rogers hit into a double play, but Pérez lined a ball off the wall in right center field off James McArthur. Jason Foley was credited with the win.
