Grace Powers Tigers to 12-5 Win
The Detroit Tigers downed the Cleveland Indians, 12-5, at Cleveland Stadium. The Tigers were led by Mark Grace. He went 4 for 4 with 2 home runs, a double, and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 4. Detroit starter Jose Rijo was credited with the win after throwing 129 pitches over 7.2 innings. His record now stands at 15-5. The 'W' lifts Detroit's record to 63-47.

Detroit right fielder Chad Rupp contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the fifth. With two down, he hit a curveball into center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 79th hit of the season and put the Tigers ahead, 3-2.

"This win gets us that much closer to where we want to be," Rupp said in postgame remarks.
