He deserved the ovations.
The Detroit Tigers (44-51) swung their way to a 14-0 victory over the Texas Rangers in Monday s series opener at Comerica Park behind Cabrera s three-run double in the fifth inning and two-run single in the sixth inning. The 38-year-old finished 2-for-4 with five RBIs. These are big moments for Miggy, our team, our organization and our fans, manager AJ Hinch said. He has given so much to this franchise. Miggy is in with the elite. You can go your whole career and not see things like this, so you ve got to soak it up as a team.
