Almost There: Detroit On Cusp of CS Triumph After 8-4 Win
The Detroit Tigers moved to within one game of the World Series today, downing the Cleveland Indians on the road at Jacobs Field by a score of 8-4. Tigers right-hander Stephen Strasburg had a strong outing. He threw 8.0 innings allowing 4 runs. The win gives the Tigers a 3-1 advantage in the best-of-7 League Championship Series.

It could have been a different outcome for Detroit, had it not been for Edwin Garcia, the fan favorite . Garcia contributed a run-scoring ground out in the top of the third inning to put Detroit up, 1-0.

"I like seeing our guys get a return on what they've put in," said Detroit manager Benoit Simoneau.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Jacobs Field in Cleveland.
