Indians Take Nail-Biter Over Tigers
The Cleveland Indians used the hitting of third baseman Morgan Ensberg to subdue the Detroit Tigers, 8-7. For the game, Ensberg was 2-2 with a home run and a double, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. The winner in relief was Robb Nen. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 1.1 innings. He now owns a record of 1-1. The Tigers, now 4-9, continue their sluggish start.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the tenth. With no one out, Ensberg hit a sinker from Scott Downs for a solo home run. The Indians, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"Our team showed some gumption," said Ensberg. "I like it."
