Champ Summers belted a pair of two-run homers and Alan Trammell knocked in three runs with two doubles to power the Tigers to an 8-4 decision over the Twins. Summers' first homer followed a leadoff two-bagger by Al Cowens in the fourth inning and tied the score at 4-4. After Trammell doubled home two runs in the sixth to snap the tie, Summers ripped his second round-tripper off reliever Mike Kinnunen, making his major-league debut. [The Sporting News]
