CLEVELAND -- Other than the first inning, Max Scherzer was flawless.
Nike Air Max 2015 Mens Sale . At the perfect
time for the Tigers. Scherzer retired 22 straight after giving up two hits and a
run in the first and Miguel Cabrera hit a two-run homer, leading Detroit to a
5-1 win over Cleveland on Tuesday night to stop the Indians winning streak at
five and trim their lead in the AL Central. Scherzer (6-0) gave up two singles
-- one a broken-bat bloop -- in the first before shutting down baseballs hottest
team for eight innings. The right-hander walked just one and struck out seven,
including the final four he faced. Scherzers 118th and last pitch was his
fastest -- a 98 mph heater to fan Drew Stubbs. "He knew that was going to be it
for him," Tigers manager Jim Leyland said. "He really cranked it up. That was
pretty impressive. He did a terrific job." Cabreras laser shot in the sixth
inning, his 12th homer and fourth in two games, off Corey Kluber (3-3) helped
the Tigers win for just the second time in six games. The defending AL champions
also moved within 1 1-2 games of the first-place Indians, who have won 18 of 23
since April 28. "That was a dominant performance," Indians manager Terry
Francona said. "His last pitch was 98, and when youre up around 115 or 120
pitches and you have that left in the tank, thats saying a lot." Scherzer gave
the Tigers a much-needed outing and set the stage for Cy Young winner Justin
Verlander, who will pitch Tuesday night. Andy Dirks hit a solo homer in the
sixth and had two RBIs as Detroit won the first game of the short, showdown
series. In the first, Scherzer was touched for a leadoff single by Michael
Bourn, a one-out base hit by Asdrubal Cabrera and a hard-hit sacrifice fly by
Michael Brantley before he made the Indians look silly. He mixed his pitches,
had Clevelands hitters off-balance and grew stronger as the game went on. "He
had his good stuff all the way around from his fastball, a good slider and a
good changeup," Bourn said. "He came out and dominated." Scherzer, who won five
straight starts before getting a no-decision in his last outing against Houston,
didnt get much support but was so good he didnt need it. He struck out seven of
the last 12 batters, and felt better on his last pitch than the previous 117. "I
definitely had the adrenaline going in that situation," he said. "You know thats
your last inning and you throw the ball as hard as you can." Before the game,
Francona said theres a danger in trying to pitch around Cabrera because Detroit
has plenty of other dangerous hitters in its lineup. "I guarantee you if you
pitch around him all day, theyre going to score," he said. Kluber went right at
Mr. Triple Crown his first two times up, and retired Cabrera on a grounder to
third in the first and routine fly to centre in the fourth. But in the sixth,
Cabrera, who homered three times in a loss at Texas on Sunday, did what he does
best. Dirks opened the inning with his fifth homer, a drive into the right-field
seats to tie it 1-all. Torii Hunter followed with a double that one-hopped the
wall in right, bringing up Cabrera with first base open. Francona elected to
have Kluber to pitch to Cabrera, who rocketed an 0-1 fastball over the
centre-field fence to give the Tigers a 3-1 lead. Francona said he didnt walk
Cabrera because Prince Fielder, Victor Martinez and Jhonny Peralta could have
made things worse. "Nobody out, youre asking for trouble," Francona said. "If
you walk him and you have first and second with nobody out, youre putting your
pitcher in a tough spot." Leyland marveled at Cabreras ability to hit Klubers
pitch. "The pitch was down and away and he got extended on it," Leyland said.
"There arent many guys who can do that. Thats why he is who he is." Detroit
added two runs in the ninth on RBI singles by Dirks and Fielder. The Indians
were missing first baseman Nick Swisher, who was placed on the paternity list
before the game after his wife, JoAnna, gave birth to the couples first child.
With Swisher out, Brantley batted cleanup for the first time this season and his
sacrifice fly in the first gave the Indians a 1-0 lead. Bourn led off with a
grounder through the box off Scherzer and raced to third on Asdrubal Cabreras
broken-bat single with one out. Brantley followed with a liner to right-centre
that was run down by Hunter but was deep enough to score the speedy Bourn
easily. That was it for the Indians, though, as Scherzer shut them down. NOTES:
Cabreras 195th homer with the Tigers moved him into a tie with Kirk Gibson for
10th place on the franchise list. ... Indians closer Chris Perez has deactivated
his Twitter account following two bad outings and harsh comments from some
