Tigers Handle Colorado , Snag 7-1 Win
A nice crowd turned out for a clash between the Detroit Tigers and Colorado Rockies.

The Detroit Tigers downed the Colorado Rockies, 7-1, at Coors Field. Stellar pitching by Hiroki Kuroda had a lot to do with it. The right-hander, who finished 4th in the NL in wins with 19 in 1996, handcuffed his opponent all game. The Tigers move to 84-68 with the win, while the Rockies drop to 73-80.

In the top of the third, Bruce Bochte delivered a clutch hit. With two gone and runners on 1st and 2nd, the Detroit right fielder hit a run-scoring single, putting the Tigers in front, 7-1.

In postgame comments to the Detroit Chronicle, Kuroda said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
