Tigers 7, Cubs 6: Offense thrives as Detroit takes the series

Though the runs column might not show it, the Detroit Tigers lineup had one of its best performances of the season during Wednesday night’s 7-6 victory over the Chicago Cubs.

The club knocked 18 base hits on the night. Every player except Isaac Paredes managed at least one hit with seven nabbing more than one. Jonathan Schoop, Miguel Cabrera, Cameron Maybin and Andrew Romine each collected three hits apiece.

Detroit did their most damage during a five-run sixth inning in which they batted through the lineup, collecting seven hits including five in a row between the second and third outs.
