Spencer Torkelson played the role of hero on Friday night, delivering a walk-off RBI single that propelled the Tigers to a 3-2 victory over the visiting Blue Jays.

The Tigers entered the home half of the ninth embattled in a 2-2 tie. Matt Vierling started the rally with a one out single and swiped second base, then after Zach McKinstry was walked intentionally, Torkelson smacked a 2-2 fastball from Jeff Hoffman into right field for the game-winning hit. He finished the night 1-for-3 and is now hitting .200/.324/.379 with six homers and 17 RBI on the season.
