SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Mike Yastrzemski hit a two-run single and made a beautiful catch in the outfield on Miguel Cabrera’s sharp liner, and the San Francisco Giants held off the Detroit Tigers 4-3 on Tuesday night.

Giants lefty Carlos Rodon (7-4) allowed one run and seven hits in six innings with four strikeouts and no walks. Rodon has permitted just two runs over his last 27 innings.

Yastrzemski’s leaping catch on the run in right field in the eighth robbed Cabrera of a likely extra-base hit, helping San Francisco improve to 7-2 this season in interleague play.

Dominic Leone had walked just six batters over his first 29 appearances before issuing three free passes and giving up Willi Castro’s RBI single with two outs in the eighth. Camilo Doval relieved and struck out Jonathan Schoop, then finished for his 12th save.

Doval got Javier Baez to ground into a game-ending double play, with the call at first base upheld after a replay review.

Cabrera got the Tigers on the board with an RBI single in the sixth.

Evan Longoria hit a two-run single in the first as the Giants quickly got to starter Tarik Skubal (5-6). The lefty was done after 4 2/3 innings and hasn’t gone more than five innings in four straight outings. A native of the East Bay suburb Hayward, Skubal yielded three runs and four hits and lost his fourth consecutive start.

This marks the Tigers’ first trip to San Francisco since being swept by the Giants in the 2012 World Series, and their first visit for a regular-season series since 2008.

HOMECOMING: Tigers rookie Spencer Torkelson remembers being in the stands cheering when San Francisco clinched the NL Championship Series in 2012 on the way to its second World Series crown in three years. Marco Scutaro secured a popup to end it and smiled as the rain poured down when the Giants eliminated St. Louis.

“It was just a really cool atmosphere,” Torkelson said. “I went to a lot of Giants games but that was one of the more memorable ones.”

The 22-year-old Torkelson grew up in the wine country North Bay city of Petaluma, where his preschool teacher painted a mural of then-Pac Bell Park on his bedroom wall. He expected some 500 supporters to be in the stands cheering him in his homecoming — including immediate family like his parents, brother, grandma and uncle.

The top pick in the 2020 amateur draft out of Arizona State, he already had a homecoming in Phoenix over the weekend when Detroit played the Diamondbacks.

TRAINER’S ROOM: Tigers RHP Miguel Pineda, working back from a broken middle finger on his pitching hand that has sidelined him since May 15, will throw a bullpen at Triple-A Toledo on Wednesday and could be in line to start for the Tigers as soon as Friday at home against Kansas City. … OF Austin Meadows returned from COVID-19 but is still dealing with strains in both Achilles tendons the Tigers hope won’t last long. “Now we wait for him to heal,” manager A.J. Hinch said.

UP NEXT: RHP Rony Garcia (2-2, 4.57 ERA) pitches the afternoon series finale Wednesday for Detroit opposite LHP Alex Wood (5-6, 5.05).
