WEB GEMS- Bot 6th: Ramon Santiago robbed Eric Thames of a base hit.
 
In a two run game the Detroit Tigers got by the Toronto Bluejays by the score
of 8 to 6.
 
Toronto was unable to recover after Detroit went ahead in the top of the 5th
inning as they scored 3 runs on 2 base hits.  The big moment was provided by
Brandon Inge who quieted the crowd when he cleared the fences for a two-run
home run.  Toronto scored in 5 different innings, but their shaky pitching
kept them from victory.  
 
The win went to Doug Fister(1-0) who allowed 6 runs in 7 innings. Jose
Valverde earned the save, his 1st.  Marc Rzepczynski(0-1) was the losing
pitcher in relief.  
 
'I just wanted to give my team a chance to win.' said Fister, 'I got burned on
a couple of pitches. But we won the game, and that's all that matters.'
