Tigers Get Hard-Earned Win
The Tigers grabbed a win, 4-3, at Comerica Park, overcoming a fine effort from Kansas City pitcher Danny Gomez. Gomez went 5.2 innings and allowed 1 run. Detroit pitcher Ron Jolly got the win. He's now 5-2. Slobodan Stevic was tagged with the loss. Detroit improves to 69-42 with the win. They lead their division by 5 games.

Detroit took a 4-3 lead on Mike Barnes's 14th home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Barnes hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Kansas City pitcher Slobodan Stevic visibly frustrated.

"Bottom line," said Kansas City skipper Bill W, "we didn't play well enough to win."
