Rallying Tigers Get 5-4 Win
The Detroit Tigers picked up a win at Comerica Tigers Park, knocking off the Atlanta Firebirds, 5-4. Starting pitcher Jon Dwight was a big reason why. Detroit reliever Clarence Rice picked up the win, upping his record to 3-5. Rudy Thomas was saddled with the loss. The first-place Tigers, at 95-61, lead the American League Central Division by 12 games.

Jimmy O'Molloy was the walk-off hero for Detroit. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Tigers pinch hitter hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"This wasn't a good win," said Dwight. "It was a great win."
