Detroit — They waited all day for something to get excited about, and when Ian Kinsler led off the bottom of the eighth inning with a single and Erick Aybar followed with a double, the crowd of 34,649 ignited an energy surge inside Comerica Park.
“That was great,” said Miguel Cabrera. “I wish they could be like that the whole game, from the first inning to the ninth. They get you going. You want to go out there and do your best.”
Down 3-1 and facing the vaunted back end of the Red Sox bullpen, the Tigers scored three times and stole a 4-3 victory Thursday afternoon, snapping a three-game losing streak.
