Detroit Tigers nab 6-4 win over Cleveland with a bloop, not a blast (by Eric Haase)

Miguel Cabrera did not hit No. 500.

But the Detroit Tigers got the win.

Eric Haase broke a 4-4 tie with Cleveland in the eighth inning, dropping a bases-loaded bloop single into shallow left-center field. A Dearborn Divine Child graduate, Haase plated two runs to give the Tigers (58-61) a 6-4 victory in front of a season-high 32,845 fans Saturday at Comerica Park.

Detroit is 49-37 since May 8 and 18-10 since the All-Star break.

Cabrera finished 1-for-2 with a single, a walk and a hit-by-pitch. Before his eighth-inning walk, the 38-year-old shot a line drive down the right-field line.
