Pitcher Chris Paddack, acquired Monday from the Minnesota Twins, threw six impressive innings and the Tigers offense again exploded in a 7-2 victory for a three-game series sweep over Arizona. Paddack allowed one run on three hits, walked none and struck out five while helping extend the Tigers' win streak to four games.

After four years with the Twins, Paddack’s “life got twisted upside-down in a matter of 24 hours,” he said. So did his standing in the AL Central.
