Raburn gets key hit to cap Tigers' comeback over Jays

Baseball Betting Lines

07/25/2010 - Detroit, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ryan Raburn hit a go-ahead three-run double in the eighth inning to give the Tigers a 6-5 comeback victory over the Blue Jays to wrap up a day-night doubleheader and a four-game series.

As a result of Friday's game being postponed due to rain, the teams had to play two on Sunday, and the Jays won the day game, 5-3, on Lyle Overbay's two- run homer in the ninth inning.

Toronto appeared on its way to a third straight win in the nightcap, leading 4-2 prior to Detroit plating four in the game-altering frame.

Miguel Cabrera and Johnny Damon each had two hits and an RBI for the Tigers, who earned a split in the series with just their third win in 12 games.

DeWayne Wise had three hits and two RBI, including a solo homer off Jose Valverde in the ninth that pulled Toronto within one.

Valverde, however, retired pinch-hitter Vernon Wells and struck out Fred Lewis and Yunel Escobar in succession to notch his 21st save of the season.

Toronto's Brian Tallet threw a 1-2-3 seventh and stayed on for the eighth before getting pulled with two on and one out. Cabrera greeted Jason Frasor (3-3) with an RBI double, and Brennan Boesch was walked intentionally walked to load the bases for Raburn, who cleared the bags with a drive to left-center to give the hosts a much-needed 6-4 cushion.

Neither starter factored in the decision, with reliever Phil Coke (6-1) getting the win for a throwing scoreless eighth inning. Jeremy Bonderman was touched for four runs on eight hits in 5 2/3 frames for Detroit, while the Jays' Jesse Litsch yielded two runs on five hits and three walks in 5 1/3 innings.

Both hurlers were on top of their game in the early going, keeping things scoreless until the fifth. Edwin Encarnacion led off that frame with a single and raced around to score on Lewis' two-out triple to center.

Jose Bautista then launched his league-leading 27th home run leading off the next inning. Bonderman was pulled later in the frame with two on and two out, and Brad Thomas and Eddie Bonine gave up run-scoring hits to Wise and John McDonald, respectively, for a 4-0 game.

The hosts finally got to Litsch in the bottom half, as Damon singled home Austin Jackson, who led off with a triple, and later scored on Boesch's sacrifice fly off Tallet.
