DETROIT (AP) — Anthony Volpe became the 15th rookie with a 20-homer, 20-stolen base season as the New York Yankees lost to the Detroit Tigers 4-3 on Thursday.

Kerry Carpenter scored from second base on Gleyber Torres’ throwing error in the 10th inning, allowing the Tigers to end a five-game skid and salvage the finale of the four-game series against the Yankees.

Beau Brieske (1-2) retired the Yankees in order in the top of the 10th.

With one on in the bottom of the inning, Zack Short grounded back to Jonathan Loáisiga (0-1), who threw to Torres for the force at second. Torres' throw to first sailed past DJ LeMahieu, allowing Carpenter to score.

Down 3-0 in the ninth, Volpe tied the game with a three-run homer to right off Tigers closer Alex Lange to become the first Yankees rookie to reach 20 homers and 20 stolen bases in a season. He is the second this year with Arizona’s Corbin Carroll.
