Miguel Cabrera ties Robin Yount for 19th in all-time hits as Tigers blank Twins, 6-0

Detroit — There were essentially two notable storylines in the Tigers' bounce-back 6-0 win over the Central Division-leading Minnesota Twins Tuesday night.

One was the pitching brilliance of Tigers' ace lefty Eduardo Rodriguez, who blanked the Twins on four hits for seven innings without one of his best pitches.

The other was Miguel Cabrera. He ignited a pair of two-run innings with a pair of base hits. With the first one, No. 3,141 in his career, he tied San Diego Padres' legend Tony Gwynn for 20th all-time. The second one, No. 3,142, moved him into a tie for 19th with Milwaukee Brewers' Robin Yount.
