DETROIT (AP) --- Angel Martnez hit a tiebreaking triple in the 10th inning,
Jos Ramrez followed with an RBI double and the Cleveland Guardians beat the
slumping Detroit Tigers 3-2 on Wednesday night.
Cleveland tied it at 1 in the ninth when Daniel Schneemann scored on Patrick
Bailey's groundout. Schneemann opened the inning with a single off Will Vest
before advancing on Travis Bazzana's single and Steven Kwan's sacrifice bunt.
Detroit, which has lost five straight games and 13 of 15, had an opportunity to
win in the bottom of the ninth with runners on first and second and no outs.
Erik Sabrowski and Colin Holderman (2-0) combined to hold the Tigers scoreless
with three consecutive strikeouts.
Martnez led off the 10th with a triple against Tyler Holton (0-4) that scored
automatic runner Brayan Rocchio, giving the Guardians a 2-1 lead. Ramrez lined
a double to center field to bring home Martnez.
The Tigers pulled to 3-2 in the bottom half when automatic runner Wenceel Prez
scored from second on Zach McKinstry's single. Cade Smith then retired the
final three batters for his 16th save.
