Also thanks in part to Tigers center fielder Niko Goodrum, who had a mishap on Seager's final homer of the night, a two-run shot in the ninth inning.
Seager collided with left fielder Brandon Dixon just in front of the left field wall and the ball hit his glove, then the top of the wall and bounced into the bullpen.

August 14, 2019 It counted just the same as the other three for Seager.
Murphy, batting 7th behind Seager, was unable to follow that up with a third homer of his own. Seager and Murphy went back-to-back twice in the game.
