Tigers Collect 4-2 Win Over Rangers
The Detroit Tigers picked up a win at Comerica Park, dropping the Texas Rangers, 4-2. Brad Penny, who is tied for 7th in the VBL in wins with 17, was the difference-maker. Detroit now sports a record of 66-92.

The decisive blow was delivered by Torii Hunter in the bottom of the 11th when he hit a 2-run home run off 23-year old right-handed pitcher Cristhian Martinez to win the game for Detroit. The home crowd went nuts.

"Our team showed some spunk," said Hunter.
