Devil Rays Sunk by Tigers
Starting pitcher Brandon Matheny was a major factor in the 5-1 Detroit Tigers triumph over the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. Matheny, now 11-1, was the winner. In 6.1 innings, he gave up 3 hits, while striking out 5, walking 3, and allowing no runs. The save went to John LeRoy, his 29th this season.

Doug Mientkiewicz helped his team jump on top from the get-go. His first time up in the top of the first, he cranked a 2-run single to give Detroit a 2-0 lead.

"If you beat me, you beat me, if not, good things will happen," said Matheny.

The win makes Detroit 50-35.
