NEW YORK (AP) — Parker Meadows hit a go-ahead single to spark a nine-run seventh inning and Kerry Carpenter added a two-run triple as the Detroit Tigers took advantage of wild relievers Fernando Cruz and Mark Leiter Jr. in a 12-2 victory over the New York Yankees on Tuesday night.
Detroit sent 14 batters to the plate in the seventh and the first nine reached against Cruz (2-4) and Leiter, who combined to allow four walks, four hits and a hit batsman.
