The Detroit Tigers received some Miggy magic at an opportune time.
Miguel Cabrera squared up a hanging slider from Cleveland Guardians right-hander Shane Bieber with two on and two outs in the bottom of the fifth inning Wednesday, lacing a single to right, to score Tucker Barnhart and Javier Báez, giving the Tigers a three-run lead.
Detroit never looked back from Cabrera’s fifth-inning blow, beating the Guardians, 8-2, and sweeping the four game series at Comerica Park. The Tigers have now scored four or more runs in six straight games, their longest streak since 2018.
