Ibáñez receives the call back to Detroit to fortify the club’s bench. It’ll likely only be a temporary stay since they’ll need to free up an active roster spot for newly acquired starter Chris Paddack in a couple days.

The 32-year-old has made a career for himself by mashing against left-handed pitching, but he struggled mightily in his time at the dish this season — slashing a woeful .213/.292/.319 with only two home runs and 15 RBI in 106 plate appearances. He’ll attempt to work through his issues in an everyday role at the Triple-A level. Jahmai Jones was promoted to the big league roster to take his spot on the Tigers’ bench.

The 32-year-old lefty-masher did his job in this one, roping a run-scoring double off of Kyle Freeland to open the scoring in the top half of the first inning. He also chipped in a sacrifice fly in the second that extended the Tigers’ advantage to 5-0. For the season, he’s now hitting .259/.339/.407 to go with two home runs and 12 RBI.

Ibáñez did what he does best in this one, which is mash left-handed pitching. He tagged Royals’ southpaw Cole Ragans for a 396-foot (103.9 mph EV) solo shot to open the fourth inning, giving the Tigers a 2-1 lead that they would never relinquish. On the season, the 32-year-old infielder is now hitting .171/.256/.371 with a pair of homers and eight RBI.
