Tigers Rally Late to Nip Spiders
The Detroit Tigers topped the Cleveland Spiders, 8-7, in AL action at Jacobs Field. The game was highlighted by the performance of Detroit left fielder William Ortiz. Detroit reliever Shawn Camp picked up the win, upping his record to 3-1. Jorge Vasquez absorbed the loss. This win makes it 7 in a row for Detroit.

Detroit used the timely hitting of Paul Goldschmidt to seize the win. The designated hitter stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Tigers on top, 8-7. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"I feel like we're rolling now," Goldschmidt told the Detroit News."The dugout is coming alive."
