Porcello and offense kill the A's again.
Miguel Cabrera had a 3 hit, 4 RBI game. He is now hitting an incredible .389 for the year. Other offensive hero's of the day: Ryan Raburn with a 3 run bomb, Placido with 3 hits and Gerald Laird with 3 hits. Lots of offsense to go around.
Add that to a very good starting pitching performance by young Mr Porcello and the outcome was predictable as the Tigs whipped the Athletics 9-1. These two games against Oakland, the combined score is 23-2!
Porcello's line: 6.0 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 2 BB, 5 SO. Really, really good. He only threw 86 pitches and if the game had been close, I'll bet Leyland sends him back out for the 7th inning. No need to do that in this situation. The bullpen took over and kept the door closed on them.
Nice team win. Now lets get the sweep!
