10-3 Tigers Win over Pirates Evens Season Record
The Detroit Tigers defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates, 10-3, in AL action at Comerica Park. Derek Jeter pulled his weight. The 20-year veteran was 2-3 with 2 singles and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs. With the win, Detroit raised its record to 20-20.

Russell Martin had a big 3-run home run for the Tigers in the bottom of the third inning. With Detroit leading 3-2 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a splitter from Brent Carter, who is tied for 3rd in the NL in complete games with 1, and punished it. The result was his 5th home run of the season, which put the Tigers on top, 6-2.

"Every time you put a 'W' on the board is always good," said Jeter.
