Tigers Drop Padres with Late Score
In a low-scoring tilt between the Detroit Tigers and the San Diego Padres, Orel Hershiser was the difference-maker. The Detroit right-hander earned player of the game honors in the 3-2 win. The 5th-place Tigers lifted their record to 49-55.

Detroit used the clutch hitting of Darrin Fletcher to capture the win. The catcher drilled a run-scoring double in the top of the eighth inning to give the Tigers the lead, 3-2. For the game, Fletcher had 1 single and 1 double in 4 at-bats.

"We put some tough at-bats on some tough pitches," said Detroit manager Julio Izquierdo.
