The Tigers ended their seven-game losing skein with a 5-2 victory over the Orioles. A sacrifice fly by Tim Corcoran and infield grounder by Alan Trammell drove in two runs in the second inning and singles by Corcoran, Phil Mankowski and Trammell were good for another tally in the fourth frame. Aurelio Rodriguez put the game on ice with a two-run pinch-homer in the sixth.
