					| The Baltimore Orioles turned back the Detroit Tigers, 7-6, at Comerica Park. Raul Mendoza, in particular, had a fine performance. He went 2-3 with 2 home runs, a walk,  and was hit by a pitch, while adding 6 RBI and scoring twice. Chris Dauphin got credit for the save for Baltimore. It was his 10th of the year. The Orioles, at 39-55, sit in 4th place in the American League East Division. 
 In the top of the first of a scoreless game, Mendoza hit a 3-run  home run to put his team ahead.
 
 "We take it day by day here," said Mendoza, "and today was a good one for us."
