Tigers Get Clutch Win Versus Kansas City
A good performance from first baseman Casey Peterson helped the Detroit Tigers defeat the Kansas City Royals, 9-8. Peterson was 3-4 with a home run, 2 doubles, and a walk, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2 for the Tigers. Detroit reliever Edgar Gines picked up the win, upping his record to 3-3. Bobby Day was saddled with the loss. The 'W' lifts Detroit's record to 30-30.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With one out, Peterson hit a cutter from Bobby Day for a solo home run. The Tigers, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"I'm just out there trying to have as much fun as I can while I'm playing," Peterson told the Detroit Gazette.
