Cabrera's two-run liner to left gave the Tigers a four-run lead in the seventh inning. Ramon Santiago hit a three-run shot in the fourth.

The Tigers set a Comerica Park record with 52 wins at home this year. They are 19 games below .500 on the road.

Rick Porcello (10-11) gave up a solo homer to Delmon Young and just three other hits over eight innings.
