Game 110 vs. NYY

Phil Hughes came in struggling, but we eventually learned that he had a chance today. The Tigers struggled with getting their timing down against Hughes.

Ian Kinsler got lucky, hitting his 35th round-tripper in the 4th.

Both teams scored in the 6th. Prince Fielder fought back against his former team, delivering an RBI double in the top of the 6th.

Edwin Encarnacion was nearly benched pre-game, but he played and delivered the game-winning RBI. He laced a double down the right field line.

In the 8th, the Yankees had a chance to cash in. With no outs, there were men at 1st and 2nd. Felix Doubront got out of the jam with a little help from Hunter Pence, who made a diving play to save a run.

John Axford had a 1-2-3 ninth for his 27th save.
