Tigers continue to roll with 10th straight win
By Sports Network


More than a week after the Tigers started their winning streak with a sweep of the White Sox, they haven't slowed down.

Detroit got four hits and three RBI from Ryan Raburn in a 14-4 rout of Chicago, extending its winning streak to 10 games and reducing its magic number for clinching the AL Central to five.

The Tigers pounded out 21 hits -- getting three from Delmon Young and Brandon Inge -- to notch their first 10-game winning streak since 1968, when the club won 11 in a row.

Detroit began its current streak with a three-game sweep of the Sox from September 2-4, which ended with an 18-2 clobbering during which it set season highs in runs and hits.

Eight days later, not much has changed.







Are you encouraged by the Toronto Blue Jays' recent winning streak?
  Yes, team is starting to gel
  No, team is not championship calibre
  Unsure what to make of it
