Known for his tape-measure blasts, Miguel Cabrera gets some help from Indians CF Michael Bourn in knocking one out in the 8th, as Bourn is about to make the catch at the warning track when the ball bounces off his glove and into the stands for a home run.

The game is delayed by rain for over an hour in the 5th inning, but Justin Verlander still returns to record the final two outs of the frame, thus qualifying for the win; there is another 48-minute delay in the 8th but the game is played to its conclusion.
