The Tigers score four times in the 13th inning to defeat the Astros, 7 – 3. Austin Jackson leads off the inning with a double off Dallas Keuchel and takes third on a ground out; Astros manager Bo Porter orders that sluggers Miguel Cabrera and Prince Fielder be issued intentional walks, but light-hitting Don Kelly comes through with a single to open the floodgates; Matt Tuiasosopo follows with a two-run double. Luke Putkonen, called up from AAA earlier in the day, earns his first big league win for Detroit.
