Miguel Cabrera doubled and homered to help the slumping Detroit Tigers beat the Baltimore Orioles 4-2 on Friday night.
Eduardo Rodriguez (1-2) pitched 6 2/3 scoreless innings, allowing five hits and walking four as the Tigers won for just the second time in 11 games.
“I haven’t had a happy drive home in a long time,” Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said.
The Orioles left the bases loaded in each of the last three innings and went 1 for 12 with runners in scoring position.
“They’ve got some good arms in the bullpen and we were just never able to get that big hit,” Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said.
