CHICAGO (WWJ/AP) - Jhonny Peralta hits a two run shot in the second inning to begin an avalanche of scoring by the Detroit Tigers as they crush the Chicago White Sox 14-4 on Monday.
As heard on 97.1 The Ticket - The Tigers continue the offensive march scoring 14 against the White Sox, winning their 10th straight game. Peralta and Ryan Raburn ignited the Detroit Tigers offense with back-to-back homers in the second inning.
