Game 31 @ SEA

There really wasn't much to this one. The pitching matchup wasn't necessarily stellar (Jordan Zimmermann vs. Jason Vargas), but the Tigers did what they were supposed to.

The offense was the real story here. Miguel Cabrera homered twice. Geovany soto, Adam Jones, and Prince Fielder played big fly too. Most of these came off of Jason Vargas (1-5).

The Tigers have swept the Mariners, and they will continue on to Oakland.
