Dillon Dingler powers Tigers past Mariners

Detroit Tigers Photo Day

Dillon Dingler

DET Catcher #13

Player Stats

Dillon Dingler went 3-for-6 and crushed his 26th home run of the season and drove in three runs on Thursday afternoon, powering the Tigers to an 11-0 victory over the Mariners in Seattle.

Dingler got the Tigers on the board in the top half of the first inning, clobbering a 2-1 cutter from Bryce Miller for a 401-foot (101.3-mph EV) two-run blast that gave the Tigers a lead they would never relinquish. He also added an RBI single in the third inning and another knock in the seventh. The 27-year-old backstop homered in all three games against the Mariners in Seattle. Dingler is quietly having an MVP-caliber season for the Tigers, slashing .278/.341/.536 with the aforementioned 26 long balls and 78 RBI while playing Gold Glove defense behind the plate.

Dillon Dingler went 1-for-4 with a double, a walk, a run scored and an RBI against the Giants on Saturday.

Dingler only had one hit in this contest, but it was a big one. With the Tigers leading 2-0 in the seventh inning, Dingler lined an RBI double to left field that scored Kevin McGonigle. Dingler then came in to score on Eduardo Valencia’s pinch hit two-run double. He’s the fifth player this season to reach 80 RBI and the first catcher. Dingler is hitting .275 with an .870 OPS.

Dillon Dingler went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer and a walk against the Mariners on Wednesday.

He’s the first Tigers catcher to hit 25 homers since Mickey Tettleton did it three straight years from 1991-93. Dingler’s homer came after Gleyber Torres was intentionally plunked by Gabe Speier and gave the Tigers their only runs in a 4-2 loss. Dingler has three homers in his last five games and is batting .333/.407/.625 with six homers in the 18 games since the All-Star break.

Dillon Dingler went 2-for-6 and belted a grand slam on Friday night as the Tigers routed the Athletics 13-1 in the opener of their three-game series in West Sacramento.

Dingler broke the game open in the eighth inning, capping off a seven-run rally with a 411-foot (100.2-mph EV) grand slam off of Luis Morales. He also singled in the third inning. With his two-hit attack, the All-Star backstop is now slashing .269/.333/.520 with 23 homers and 72 RBI.

Dillon Dingler smacked a go-ahead RBI double in the eighth inning on Thursday night, propelling the Tigers past the Royals.

Dingler strolled to the dish with a man on second base and two outs in the eighth inning with the score knotted up at three runs apiece. The All-Star backstop fell behind 1-2 against Steven Cruz before lining a slider into the left field corner to plate Hao-Yu Lee with the go-ahead run. Dingler also singled, drew a walk and scored in the ballgame, finishing the night 2-for-3. He’s having an exceptional season at the dish, slashing .274/.339/.537 with 22 homers and 66 RBI in 391 plate appearances.

Dillon Dingler hit a two-run homer, doubled and walked Tuesday against the Cubs.

Dingler’s homer off Aaron Civale in the ninth gave the Tigers’ their only runs in the 11-2 loss, but it wasn’t far off from being a two-homer game; his 362-foot shot to left in the second would have been a homer in 23 ballparks and likely would have gone out in Wrigley if the wind hadn’t been blowing in. Dingler has 22 homers and 65 RBI in 92 games on the season.

Dillon Dingler went 4-for-5 with three runs scored, two home runs and three RBI against the Cubs on Monday.

Dingler now has 21 home runs this season. He hit a solo shot off Jameson Taillon in the first inning and another solo shot off Tyler Ferguson in the eighth inning. Dingler had been 2-for-10 with no walks and three strikeouts in three games since the All-Star break entering Monday. He’s hitting .268 with an .856 OPS and 63 RBI.

Dillon Dingler (hand) is back in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Phillies.

Dingler is back at DH following a two-game absence due to right hand soreness. It’s an extremely encouraging development for the Tigers that he managed to avoid serious injury. All signs point to him being ready to play in next week’s All-Star Game in Philadelphia.

Dillon Dingler (hand) remains out of the Tigers’ lineup for the second day in a row.

It wouldn’t be surprising if the Tigers took it easy on Dingler heading into the All-Star break, so we wouldn’t be stunned if he misses this weekend series. Jake Rogers is taking over at catcher and batting ninth against the Phillies tonight.

Dillon Dingler (hand) is not in the Tigers’ starting lineup for Thursday’s series finale against the Athletics.

The good news is that the All-Star backstop is not dealing with any fractures after being struck on the hand by a foul tip during Wednesday’s game. The Tigers did add an extra catcher to the roster on Thursday to help add depth behind the plate, but Dingler wasn’t placed on the injured list which is very encouraging. He’s considered day-to-day.

DET Catcher #13

Dillon Dingler (hand) underwent X-rays that came back negative for any fractures.

Dingler will undergo additional imaging out of an abundance of caution to rule out any structural issues, but it seems like he managed to avoid a worst-case scenario after taking a foul tip off his right hand during Wednesday’s contest against the Athletics. The 27-year-old All-Star backstop is day-to-day for now. There should be additional updates on his status leading into Thursday’s series finale.

Shohei Ohtani went 2-for-4 with an RBI double, a stolen base and two runs scored in the Dodgers’ 6-5 defeat of the Royals on Monday.

Ohtani had gone 67 straight games without a steal before collecting his seventh of the year tonight. It’s unlikely that he’ll do much all that much running the rest of the way, but it’s nice to know it’s there when he needs it.

Tarik Skubal allowed three runs in five innings to take a no-decision against the Royals in his home debut for the Dodgers on Monday.

Jac Caglianone singled and homered to drive in all three runs. Skubal finished up with six strikeouts, four of which came on his fastball. He averaged 97.4 mph with that offering, his third highest mark of the season. He also came in at 97.3 mph last time out, so it looks like his stuff might be peaking at a good time for the Dodgers. He’ll likely face the Brewers on Sunday.

Edwin Díaz worked a perfect ninth for his sixth save Monday against the Royals.

It’s been a struggle for Díaz since he came off the IL, but his lone difficulty tonight against the bottom third of the Royals lineup was his shoelace coming untied with two outs. He threw only 12 pitches, so he should be available to close again Tuesday.

Noah Cameron gave up four runs through 5 2/3 innings Monday against the Dodgers.

Cameron generated 13 whiffs tonight but finished with only two strikeouts. His cutter was particularly ineffective; he threw it 22 times and gave up three hits while generating zero whiffs and only two called strikes. While others have had success lately in ramping up their fastball usage against the Dodgers, Cameron, who has experienced a velocity boost over the last month, threw four-seamers and sinkers only 21 times in the 101-pitch outing. Notably, he gave up zero hits on those pitches. Things will probably go better next time out against the Angels.

Mike Trout went 1-for-2 with three walks and a solo home run against the Rangers on Monday.

Trout’s home run was his 20th of the season. He hit a solo shot off MacKenzie Gore in the first inning. Trout has two home runs in his last four games. Maybe he’ll continue to pop home runs down the stretch of the season, but with his average at .237 with 42 RBI and eight steals, it’s fair to question Trout’s fantasy profile at this point in his career.
