Tampa Bay 6-3 Losers to Giants
Detroit starter Mike Wroten pitched well against the Tampa Bay Captains at Ballpark of Detroit. The right-hander led his team to a win, 6-3. Wroten yielded 2 runs over 6.2 innings to notch the win. He scattered 7 hits, walked 2, and struck out 7. His record improves to 7-4. Lee Maher notched his 21st save in 22 chances.

Ron Cardwell had a big 2-run home run for the Giants in the bottom of the sixth inning. With Detroit leading 2-1 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a fastball from 33-year old right-handed pitcher Justin Berardi and punished it. The result was his 2nd home run of the season, which put the Giants on top, 4-1.

"We cashed in when we had the chance," said Detroit manager Larry Voltaire.

The Giants, now 48-37, have won 4 in a row.
