Tigers Win at Minnesota, 6-3
The Detroit Tigers picked up a win at Target Field, dropping the Minnesota Twins, 6-3. Matt Shoemaker, who is on pace for 226 strikeouts this season, was the difference-maker. The third-place Tigers sport a record of 43-47.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Raul Sifuentes? The Detroit right fielder had a bases-clearing double in the top of the third inning to put the Tigers on top, 5-0. For the game, Sifuentes had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"I just made my pitches," said Shoemaker, "and the ball kept missing the bat."
