DETROIT (AP) \u2014 Eric Haase and Daz Cameron hit RBI singles during a four-run eighth inning for Detroit, and the Tigers won their first game following manager Ron Gardenhire\u2019s retirement, 5-2 over the Cleveland Indians. Gardenhire abruptly stepped down before the game, saying it had been a stressful season for him and that he needed to focus on his health.<\/strong> What looked like another quiet night for Detroit’s bats suddenly changed in the eighth, when the Tigers broke through. Jose Ramirez hit a two-run double in the third for Cleveland’s only scoring, but he lined into a double play with men on first and third in the eighth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
