CLEVELAND — Brayan Rocchio singled home automatic runner Ramón Laureano with one out in the 10th inning, giving the Cleveland Guardians a 5-4 victory over the Detroit Tigers. Cleveland forced extra innings on David Fry's solo homer in the ninth against Andrew Chafin, then completed its comeback when Rocchio sharply smacked a pitch from closer Alex Lange into center field. Rocchio also scored an unearned run in the eighth off Joey Wentz to pull the Guardians within 4-3. Emmanuel Clase earned the win with a scoreless inning as Cleveland moved into a tie for the second-best record in the American League at 24-13.
