Live blog: Cabrera plays long ball in the 5th

Top 5th: Tigers 4, Indians 0

There was just that feeling in the air the Miguel Cabrera was going to get his tonight after a confrontation with the Cleveland bench in the first inning. And boy, oh boy, did Cabrera get his when he hit a 3-run bomb to right field to give the Tigers a 4-0 lead over the Indians in the fifth inning.

Jose Iglesias was able to drill a double down the left field line with the Tribe playing the infield in. Ian Kinsler followed with a base knock to right field that gave the Tigers runners on the corners.
