Scott Kazmir reeled off a total of 10 strikeouts as the Detroit Tigers
outscored the Oakland Athletics 5 to 4.

Kazmir(6-9) pitched a solid game. He was reached for 4 hits and 8 walks in 6
innings. Oakland threatened in the 9th but Detroit was able to put down the
rally.

Kazmir got relief help from Todd Jones who gained credit for his 13th save.
Chris Young(3-7) was the losing pitcher. When asked about his strikeout
total for the game, Kazmir offered, 'The fan's really got into it. It is fun
to see them tally up the strikeout totals up there in the stands.
Fortunately, I kept them busy this afternoon - of course, it would be all for
naught without the 'W'.'

Jason Giambi blasted a homerun and had 3 RBI at Tropicana Field where the
sizzling Tampa Bay Rays beat the Detroit Tigers by the score of 6 to
2.

Tampa Bay promptly took the lead in their half of the first scoring 2 runners
on 2 hits. The crucial at-bat was provided by Giambi who made the home-town
crowd a happy bunch when he bombed a two-run dinger (his 15th of the season).
Tampa Bay had 12 hits overall, while Detroit had 6.

The victory was credited to Chad Billingsley(10-3) who went 8 innings,
allowing 2 runs. George Sherrill earned the save, his 5th. Brandon
Webb(6-13) absorbed the loss. He was knocked around by Tampa Bay, allowing
10 hits and 3 walks in 5 and 1/3 innings.

Tampa Bay added another win to their now very impressive winning streak.
'We're on quite a roll lately' said John Ramsey. 'I just hope we can keep it
going.'

distance as the Detroit Tigers ballclub embarrassed the Houston Astros by the
count of 11 to 1.

Cabrera provided much of the offense. He blasted a solo shot in the 2nd
inning, doubled in the 3rd inning and smashed a bases-empty 'big-fly' (his
25th of the season) in the 8th inning. Detroit totaled 14 hits on the
afternoon.

The win went to Webb(7-13) who allowed 1 run in the game. Ubaldo Jimenez(4-10)
absorbed the loss. He was touched for 3 homeruns in his 5 and 2/3 innings of
work.
