Cabrera homers, Tigers outlast Red Sox in slugfest 9-8 (Yahoo Sports)

Miguel Cabrera hit a two-run home run, Jarrod Saltalamacchia and Tyler Collins each had a pair of RBIs and the Detroit Tigers roughed up knuckleballer Steven Wright to beat the Boston Red Sox 9-8 on Tuesday night. With the game tied in the sixth, Collins drew a bases-loaded two-out walk, which allowed Justin Upton to score the deciding run. On a night when both starting pitchers struggled to string together outs, Detroit and Boston combined for 22 hits.
