There were a couple of positives to pull from the game:
-The Tigers did put up 5 runs on the board by featuring a balanced attack. Everybody got at least one hit
-Higginson and Halter did a nice job at the top of the order with each getting on base twice
-Tiger hitters exercised some patience at the plate forcing Tampa starter Tanyon Sturtze to throw 100 pitches in 5 2/3 innings
