Upton's two-run shot, Iglesias' homer helps Detroit come back from five-run deficit

Justin Upton hit a two-run home run in the bottom of the ninth to give the Detroit Tigers a 12-11 walk-off win tonight at Comerica Park.

The Tigers trailed, 11-7, in the eighth but scored three times in the inning. Nick Castellanos scored when James McCann grounded into a fielder's choice and Jose Iglesias added a two-run home run.

McCann finished 2-for-4 with a grand slam in the first inning, career-high five RBIs and two runs scored.

The Twins had the bases loaded with two outs but Shane Greene struck out Miguel Sano to keep it a one-run game.
