Detroit Tigers' Matt Manning earns first MLB win in 6-2 victory over St. Louis Cardinals

Detroit Tigers rookie Matt Manning earned every bit of the standing ovation he received from the fans.

Making his Comerica Park debut six days after his MLB debut, Manning guided the Tigers (32-42) into the sixth inning against the St. Louis Cardinals. There's still plenty for him to work on, but the 23-year-old is holding his own in the big leagues.

The Tigers' offense helped Manning to his first big-league win with home runs from Daz Cameron and Jonathan Schoop. Their blasts were crucial to notching a 6-2 victory over the Cardinals in the two-game series' finale.
