Despite a fine performance by first baseman Orestes Kindelán, the Toronto Blue Jays suffered a 7-4 loss to the Detroit Tigers. Kindelán went 2-3 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Brad Clontz got credit for the save for Detroit. It was his 12th of the year. The 4th-place Blue Jays have lost 5 consecutive games.

The Tigers got a big at-bat from center fielder Jose R Herrera. For the game, Herrera went 2-5 with 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI. In the bottom of the sixth, with the bases loaded, he stroked a 2-run single. His 38th hit of the season gave Detroit a 4-2 lead.

"Feels good to get the job done," Herrera said after the game.
