| Miguel Cabrera homers, Detroit Tigers beat… | |
By Noah Trister
Detroit Tigers’ Miguel Cabrera, center, gives a high-five to third base coach Gene Lamont after hitting a two-run home run to left field off Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Brian Matusz in the bottom of the first inning of a baseball game on Sunday, Sept. 25, 2011, at Comerica Park in Detroit. (AP Photo/Lon Horwedel) DETROIT — Miguel Cabrera homered and singled, keeping the pressure on in his push for the American League batting title before leaving the Detroit Tigers’ 10-6 win over the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday with lightheadedness. Cabrera came out after lining out to left field in the seventh inning — a trainer had checked on him in the middle of the at-bat. The slugger began the day one point behind Boston’s Adrian Gonzalez but raised his average from .339 to .341. Brad Penny (11-11) allowed three runs and five hits in 5 1-3 innings for the win. Brian Matusz (1-9) gave up six runs and seven hits in five innings. Assuming he doesn’t pitch again this year, Matusz will finish with a 10.69 ERA, a record high for a pitcher with at least 40 innings in a season, according to STATS LLC. Roy Halladay had a 10.64 ERA for Toronto in 2000. The Tigers have clinched the AL Central and are now playing largely for playoff position and individual honors. Cabrera hit a two-run shot in the first inning, his 29th home run of the year, and Victor Martinez, Don Kelly and Jhonny Peralta added homers of their own for Detroit. After Cabrera gave Detroit a 2-0 lead, Delmon Young hit an RBI single in the third to make it 3-0. Baltimore scored three runs in the fifth to tie it. Pedro Florimon Jr. drove in two of them with a double, his first career hit. Detroit immediately rallied back. After Cabrera hit a two-out single in the bottom of the inning, Martinez followed with a three-run homer to make it 6-3. Kelly added a three-run shot an inning later. Nolan Reimold hit a three-run homer in the eighth for the Orioles — an estimated 434 feet to left-center — to make it 9-6. Peralta’s solo shot in the bottom half gave Detroit another insurance run.

Both have 2,586. … The Tigers will send Doug Fister (10-13) to the mound Monday night against Cleveland’s Ubaldo Jimenez (4-3) to begin the final series of the regular season. … Baltimore hosts Boston for three games. The Orioles will send Tommy Hunter (4-4) to the mound Monday night to face Josh Beckett (13-6). Thanks for visiting our blog =). Posted in orioles-news | Comments Off
