Detroit Gets 6-3 Win
Behind a fine performance from Mickey Mantle, the Detroit Tigers knocked off the Cleveland Indians, 6-3. Mantle was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 3 for the Tigers. The winning pitcher was Henderson Alvarez III. He's now 6-4. He went 6 innings, allowing 3 runs on 7 hits for the Tigers. Alex Hardy locked down his 5th save.

Detroit used the timely hitting of Chick Hafey to capture the win. The left fielder stroked a 2-run double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Tigers on top, 6-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but he made it count.

Mantle said his team "played with focus."

After today's action, Detroit sits at 79-74; Cleveland slips to 76-76.
