Meanwhile, he got some help from his offense right away as Daniel Cabrera hit a 2-run home run in the bottom of the first inning

That score 2-0 lead would hold until the 8th inning when Cade Beloso hit a 3-run double. It was a part of a 4-run inning to put the game away.

Right down the line!

The Tigers bring three runs across on the @cade_beloso double!
