Casey Mize Exits Start Against Braves with Groin Tightness

Detroit Tigers right-hander Casey Mize (2-1, 2.51 ERA) exited Tuesday's start against the Atlanta Braves in the third inning due to right groin tightness. Before the injury, Mize was engaged in a high-pressure pitching duel at Truist Park. His early departure is a significant blow to the Tigers' pitching staff, which now faces an increased workload for the bullpen.
