After getting smashed 13-1 in the series opener, the Detroit Tigers looked for revenge against the Cleveland Indians at Comerica Park in Detroit, Michigan. Both teams racked up eight hits, but the Tigers won 4-1 to snap a four-game losing streak. 

Alfredo Simon made the start and was dominant over 6.2 innings. Simon now has a 4-0 record and a 1.65 ERA. He gave up six hits and two walks, while striking out three batters. 

"Today was very heavy on the splitter, for sure," Tigers catcher Alex Avila said about Simon. "He made some good pitches on the inside corner with his two-seam fastball."

The Tigers official closer, Joakim Soria, came in to pitch the ninth and exited with a save to his name. Soria is now 6-for-6 in save situations. He went 1.0 innings and struck out one hitter. 

Detroit got an early lead with a two-RBI single from Victor Martinez that plated Rajai Davis and Ian Kinsler. 

Martinez proved to put the team on his back with another RBI. It was a single that scored Davis, who did a great job of getting on base and stealing bases. As a matter of fact, he stole three bags in the victory. 

"Yeah, the two singles right-handed were obviously big, big runs to get us on the board early," Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said about Martinez.

In the fourth, Kinsler ripped a double to deep left. Once again, Davis scored. That made it 4-1 and it stayed that way till the end. 

Miguel Cabrera drew four walks in the game for the first time in his career, three were intentional. 

"He's an unusual hitter," Indians manager Terry Francona said.

Cabrera taking first base allowed Martinez to do damage just seconds later. He did just that on Saturday. 

Trevor Bauer was set to make the start for the Tribe, but was a last second scratch because of an illness. T.J. House, who is now 0-3, gave up three runs on four hits and four walks over 4.1 innings pitched. 

"Probably not the flu. Probably food poisoning. He ate something last night that didn't go down well," Francona said. "He came to the park today and we tried to get some fluids in him. We put T.J. on notice that he might have to pitch. He warmed up and still didn't feel good."

The Indians will send out youngster Carlos Carrasco (2-1, 2.38 ERA) to the mound to face Tigers lefty Kyle Lobstein (1-1, 3.27 ERA) who will toe the slab on Sunday. Carrasco has impressed early this season, but is 2-5 with a 6.86 ERA in 13 games against Detroit. It will be interesting to see how he pitches this time around.
