Live Tigers blog: Tiger bats go to work in 4th

Bottom 4th: Tigers 6, Twins 5

The Tigers answered Minnesota's big inning with one of their own, putting four more runs on the board and taking back the lead, 6-5.

Justin Upton drew a leadoff walk and James McCann followed by grounding into a fielder's choice that moved the runner up to second. With one out, Andrew Romine notched an RBI single back up the middle of the diamond, making it a 5-3 ballgame.

Jose Iglesias followed by grounding into a fielder's choice of his own, putting Romine on second for Ian Kinsler, who drove a triple to right center for his third hit of the night, putting him just a home run shy of the cycle, and more importantly, pulling the Tigers within a run at 5-4.
