Tigers Get 5-2 Win Versus Chicago
Getting offensive support from Mel Garcia, the Detroit Tigers topped the Chicago White Sox, 5-2. Garcia was 2 for 3 with a home run and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for the Tigers. Kenneth Jones picked up the win in relief, improving his record to 4-4. Jon Mendez, who is tied for 10th in the AL in strikeouts with 107, was tagged with the loss. Detroit goes to 49-39, Chicago to 63-27.

Jeff Pettinato had a big solo home run for the Tigers in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Detroit leading 2-1 and the bases empty, he sized up a sinker from Jon Mendez, who is on pace to win 22 games this season, and punished it. The result was his 4th home run of the season, which put the Tigers on top, 3-1.

"I thought we played a nice game," Pettinato told the Detroit Today. "Good pitching, timely hitting, it was all there."
