Tigers Prevail, 4-3, Over Colorado
The Detroit Tigers did just enough to secure a 4-3 victory over the Colorado Rockies at Tiger Stadium. Nobody did more than pitcher Toby Borland, who captured player of the game honors. Julio Teheran got credit for the win, improving to 2-2. He allowed 1 run on 2 hits in 2 innings. Frank Eufemia, summoned from the bullpen, notched his 1st save.

Had Jerry Turner not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Turner hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 4-3, in favor of the Tigers.

"For the most part, I made good pitches when I needed to," said Borland.

The Tigers' win now puts them at 22-28.
