Tigers Victorious at Minnesota, 6-3
Detroit first baseman Odell Young contributed significantly to his team's 6-3 win over the Minnesota Twins. Young, who finished 4th in the NL in runs with 113 in 2001, went 2 for 5 with 2 runs scored to lead the offensive attack for the Tigers. Andrew Miller, credited with the save, is now 4 for 5 in save opportunities. The Detroit winning streak has reached 3 games.

Detroit used a timely hit from Gorkys Hernandez to get the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Tigers ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"We were able to get some things going offensively," said Hernandez.
