DETROIT -- James McCann belted his first career grand slam Sunday to bust things open in the first inning of the Tigers' 11-0 rout of the Astros. It was his second home run of the weekend series and third during the Tigers' six-game winning streak.
To complement his two home runs in the series, McCann delivered the game-tying hit Saturday night in the ninth inning before the Tigers went on to walk off with a dramatic win. While the young catcher's OPS still hangs below .600, McCann said he feels he has been hitting the ball well lately.
