Marte hits 3rd home run as Tigers Squeeze Past Kansas City
The Detroit Tigers did just enough to sneak past the Kansas City Royals, 10-9, at Kauffman Stadium. Detroit center fielder Starling Marte earned player of the game honors. Detroit reliever Pedro Baez was the winner. His record is now 2-2. Kelvin Herrera took the loss. The Tigers bumped their record to 19-15 with this latest triumph.

The game turned with one out in the top of the fourth when Marte, who is a two-time Great Glove Award winner, hit a 3-run home run. It propelled the Tigers into the lead, 6-3.

"I play this game for myself and my family, but of course it's always nice when we can win," said Marte.
