DETROIT — Eric Haase homered in both games of a doubleheader, driving in six runs, and the Detroit Tigers tagged Max Scherzer in his return from a suspension to sweep the New York Mets with an 8-1 victory Wednesday night.
Haase had five RBIs in the first game, including a go-ahead single in the eighth inning of a 6-5 comeback win, and then added one of Detroit's two homers off Scherzer in the nightcap.
"I've watched him pitch a lot," said Haase, who grew up a Tigers fan in Detroit. "I want to say that was just another homer, but it was obviously pretty cool.
