Tigers Nip Rockies, 5-4
The Detroit Tigers took Colorado pitcher Bob Cain's best shot and still were able to claim a win at Astrodome. The final score had Detroit getting past the Rockies, 5-4. Cain went 9 innings and allowed 5 earned runs, striking out 10. Detroit reliever Frank Eufemia got the win, raising his record to 6-4. Bob Cain was tagged with the loss. The Tigers now have a mark of 31-46.

It could have been a different outcome for Detroit, had it not been for Charlie Blackmon, the two-time All-Star . Blackmon contributed a run-scoring hit-by-pitch in the top of the fourth inning to put Detroit up, 5-4.

"We cashed in when we had the chance," said Detroit manager Brian Rodgers.
