The inspired effort of Minnesota first baseman Freddie Freeman was not enough to prevent a 11-6 loss to the Detroit Tigers. Freeman was 2 for 3 with a home run, a walk, and was hit by a pitch. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. Detroit now sits in second place in the American League Central Division at 60-63.

The Tigers got a big at-bat from left fielder Aaron Altherr. For the game, Altherr went 1-6 with a home run. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. In the top of the tenth, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 18th home run of the season gave Detroit a 8-6 lead.

"It's a satisfying feeling, to win like we did," said Altherr.
