Tribe starter T.J. House (L 0-1, 1.1 IP 6 H 6 R 6 ER 3 BB 2 SO HR) got taken to the house or the cleaners or even the out house as the Detroit Tigers put up crooked three's in the first two frames and hangs on to beta the Cleveland Indians 8-5 at Progressive Field.

It was Venezuelan Miguel Cabrera who stole the show as he still has it going 4 for 4 with four RBI and three runs scored. Two of those hits were via the "Long Ball" as he went two-run HR in the 1st and solo blast in the 4th.

Tigers starter Kyle Lobenstein (W 1-0, 5 IP 8 H 3 R 3 ER 2 BB 3 SO) did enough to get the win but he didn't have his best stuff either. He left after five with a 7-3 lead as the Tribe score two in the 8th to make it interesting only to see the Tigers add another one in their half of the 9th.

Detroit's J.D. Martinez will be at the Mid Summer's Classic in 2015 as he continues to rake going 3 for 5 with 3 RBI and a run scored as he took the Tribe's Shaun Marcum deep for that solo Bomb in the 9th.

Tigers finish the sweep of the Tribe moving to 6-0 and if Justin Verlander can get top at least 25-30 starts in 2015 it's a Royals and Tigers two-headed monster i the AL Central.
