Cabrera went 4-for-5 with two doubles, two runs and two RBIs to pace the offense, and he helped spark the five-run rally with an RBI double off the right-field wall in the third. J.D. Martinez also singled home a run before Upton crushed a three-run shot off Twins starter Tyler Duffey. The Tigers blew it open with a three-run eighth, keyed by a two-run single from Andrew Romine with two outs.
The early support was enough for Tigers lefty Matt Boyd, who went six innings, allowing three runs on five hits.
