Scores, news, and notes, from around the Detroit Tigers’ farm system for Wednesday, April 8, 2026.

St. Paul Saints 4, Toledo Mud Hens 3 (F/13)( box ) Pitching ruled the night as neither club could string anything together in this one. They eventually needed four extra innings to decide it.

On the plus side, Sawyer Gipson-Long looked pretty good in his return to Toledo, while Max Clark’s on-base streak reached 10 games as he continues to handle the Triple-A jump with far more ease than he did the previous two leaps in level. Sawyer Gipson-Long’s return to the Mud Hens went pretty well. He handled three innings as he works his way back from a spring injury.

The right-hander allowed a run on two hits and two walks, punching out five on 10 whiffs for the evening. It's been a long road for Sawyer Gipson-Long. He looks good tonight with 10 swings and misses through 3 innings as he strikes out the side in the second.
