Tigers Stun Pilots, 7-5
The inspired effort of Seattle center fielder Ken Griffey Jr. was not enough to prevent a 7-5 loss to the Detroit Tigers. Griffey Jr. went 4 for 5 with a double and 3 singles. Jim Neidlinger got the win, improving to 1-0. He pitched 8.1 innings, giving up 13 hits and 5 runs, while striking out 5 and walking 3. Picking up the save was Francisco Oliveras, his 2nd.

Dave Hollins's at-bat in the bottom of the seventh inning was a big one for Detroit. Coming to bat with two out, runners on 1st and 2nd and Detroit trailing 5-4, the designated hitter reached on an error by the C, driving in 1 run.

Hollins said his wife shared good advice with him before the game. "She said, 'Don't allow this game to make you mad.' When I thought about it, I realized this is just a game. I was able to relax at the plate."

Detroit, at 3-1, is off to a blistering start.
