The Detroit Tigers finally put a halt to their 6 game losing streak tonight by defeating the Cleveland Indians 4-3. The Tigers had put 4 runs on the scoreboard by the 4th inning and then held on for the victory. Homeruns by Craig Monroe and Marcus Thames along with a 4 for 4 game by Dimitri Young paced the offense for Detroit. Kenny Rogers wasn't at his best but went 5 1/3 innings for the Win, his 14th of the season. The Tiger bullpen did a fine job holding the Indians scoreless the rest of the way and Todd Jones picked up his 8th Save of the season.
