ARLINGTON, Texas - Austin Jackson had three of Detroit's
season-high 20 hits and Rick Porcello won for the sixth time in his
last seven outings to help the Tigers beat the Texas Rangers 8-1 on
Tuesday night.
Porcello (6-3) gave up a run over six innings against the AL
West-leading Rangers as the Tigers improved to 8-1 in their last
nine games. Porcello has allowed less than two runs in five of his
last nine starts.
A night after getting 18 hits, Jackson helped Detroit win its
fourth straight with three RBIs. The Tigers scored four runs in the
fourth off Matt Harrison (5-5). Every Tiger in the lineup had at
least one hit, including Casper Wells, Alex Avila, and Victor
Martinez, who also had three hits apiece.
