Without Ausmus, Tigers bats erupt against Twins

Detroit — Twins manager Paul Molitor couldn't wait to get to his bullpen.

Prompting the question: Has the dude seen his bullpen?

The Tigers roared to life — without even needing their manager to start stripping to provide them a spark — with a seven-run seventh inning in blowing past the lowly Minnesota Twins, 7-2, on Tuesday night at Comerica Park.

Detroit improved to 5-0 this season against Minnesota, 4-0 under Brad Ausmus and 1-0 under Gene Lamont, the interim manager for this one as Ausmus served his one-game suspension for his sweatshirt-shedding tirade the night before.
