On the night they pay tribute to long-time broadcaster Ernie Harwell, who passed away last week, the Tigers beat New York, 5 – 4, with key contributions from three former Yankees. Johnny Damon, signed as a free agent in the off-season, hits a home run in his first game against his former team, while Austin Jackson drives in a run and Phil Coke gets two key outs late in the game. Jackson and Coke were both obtained in a trade for OF Curtis Granderson, who is on the disabled list.
