BOX SCORE

The Detroit Tigers are once again World Series Champions. With a 6-3 victory over the Mets in Game 4, the Tigers clinched a sweep, and their first World Series Championship since 1984.

It wasn't easy though. The Mets elected to start Max Scherzer on 3 days rest, with Jacob deGrom ready in the bullpen if needed. The Tigers got a run in the first, on a 2 out RBI single by Miguel Cabrera. The Mets tied the game in the bottom of the 2nd, on a Mark Canha solo home run to left.

The Tigers scored three times in the 3rd, to take a 4-1 lead. Juan Soto singled to right, scoring Javier Baez, and then Spencer Torkelson followed with a 2 run home run to dead center field, scoring Soto.

The Mets got one back in the bottom of the 3rd, on a sac fly by Starling Marte. They got another single run in the 5th, on a J.D. Davis solo home run, his 4th of the post season. That cut the lead to 4-3.

Kyle Dutcher homered in the 7th, to give the Tigers a 2 run lead. Miguel Cabrera added another RBI single in the 8th, for a 3 run lead. Lucas Sims, and Gregory Soto combined to allow just 1 hit in the final 3 innings, to seal the win. Soto earned his 7th save of the post season. Neither Sims nor Soto were scored upon in the post season.

Eduardo Rodriguez started, and pitched 6 innings, allowing 3 earned runs on 6 hits, to get the win.

The Tigers now head into the off season, with few unsigned players. Michael Pineda, and Wily Peralta are unsigned, and neither are expected to be resigned.

The only real question mark will be Miguel Cabrera. Cabrera hinted at the beginning of the post season that he would consider retiring if the Tigers won the World Series. Cabrera, who has a history of bad knees, seemingly broke down towards the end of the regular season, though he did hit .391 with 12 RBI in the post season. If he would choose to retire, it could open the door for the Tigers to possibly make a big splash in Free Agency. If he returns, the Tigers aren't expected to make too many changes.
