Raucous Comerica Park Crowd Propels Tigers to 7-3 Victory; Series Tied at 3
The Detroit Tigers and the Arizona Diamondbacks will take the Wild Card Series to a decisive 7th game. In a must-win situation today, the Tigers beat the Diamondbacks 7-3 at Comerica Park to force the series into what will essentially be a one-game playoff. Detroit right-hander Kris Benson had a big role in the win. He threw 6.1 innings of 3-hit ball.

Deivi Cruz dealt the Diamondbacks a blow in the bottom of the first. Batting with the bases loaded and Detroit leading 1-0, Cruz, who finished 4th in the AL in hits with 199 in 2000, hit a 1-1 changeup for a run-scoring single.

Benson said his team "played with determination."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Comerica Park in Detroit.
