Tigers Use Late-Game Magic to Beat Cubs, 7-4
Chicago (N) got a valiant performance from pitcher Kirk Rueter, but it wasn't enough to beat the Detroit Tigers. Detroit won the game, 7-4. Rueter threw 7.2 innings allowing 2 runs for the losing team. Detroit has run its win streak to 5 straight.

Detroit used the timely hitting of Jerry Remy to seize the win. The first baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Tigers on top, 7-4. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"If I do my job, we've usually got a good chance to win the game," said Remy.
