CLEVELAND — Jake Rogers has caught Casey Mize since 2019. He was there when Mize arrived at his first spring training as the toast of town. He was behind the plate when Mize fired a 98-pitch no-hitter in his Double-A debut.

Casey Mize pitched seven scoreless innings Saturday with no margin for error, helping the Tigers squeak out a 1-0 win.

The Tigers (56-34) have taken the first two games of the series against the Guardians (40-47), who have now lost nine straight.
