Tigers get their offense in gear in 7-3 win over Twins

Detroit — AJ Hinch has been searching and searching, trying to find some kind of spark for the Tigers offense.

For one game at least, he found it.

Robbie Grossman and Harold Castro, hitting 1-2 in the batting order, combined to get on base eight times Saturday and they kick-started a five-run rally in the bottom of the seventh that sent the Detroit Tigers to a 7-3 win over the Minnesota Twins at Comerica Park.

"When we have action like that, we're a better team," Hinch said. "The putting the ball in play was pretty good, the activity on the bases, going from first to third, the two-strike hitting — it just creates a much different look to an offense.
