Late Rally by Tigers Locks Up 5-2 Win
Eager fans turned out for a matchup between the Detroit Tigers and Minnesota Twins.

The Minnesota Twins got a sterling performance from pitcher Vern Law, but the Detroit Tigers still prevailed, 5-2. Law threw 7.0 innings of 3-hit ball. Detroit raised its record to 78-66 with the win.

Detroit took a 5-2 lead on Travis Snider's 31st home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which Snider hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Minnesota pitcher Rusty Meacham visibly frustrated.

Detroit manager Nick Puccio commended his team for "doing what it takes to win."
