Kinney Powers Tigers Offense
At Comerica Park, the Las Vegas Athletics and Detroit Tigers were greeted by an enthusiastic crowd.

The Detroit Tigers beat the Las Vegas Athletics, 6-5, at Comerica Park. Chris Kinney, who finished 3rd in the AL in on-base percentage with .397 last year, starred for Detroit. He went 3 for 4 with a home run, a triple, and a double, while scoring 2 and driving in 3. Detroit reliever Josh Gonzalez was the winner. His record is now 2-1. Greg Webb took the loss. Jose Padilla got credit for the save for Detroit. It was his 7th of the year.

In the bottom of the eighth, Tony Rodriquez delivered a clutch hit. With two gone and a runner on 2nd, the Detroit shortstop hit a run-scoring single, putting the Tigers in front, 6-5.

Rodriquez told reporters after the game: "This one was touch and go, but we were able to put it in the win column."

At 17-27, the Tigers find themselves in third place in the American League Central Division.
