Detroit – Most of the drama for the first five innings Friday night was atmospheric.
Rain clouds gradually creeped through the area in the fourth and fifth innings, scattering the fans but not stopping play.
But in the bottom of the sixth, it was the Tigers' offense -- sparked again by rookie Eduardo Valencia – that provided all the entertainment the festive crowd of 34,084 at Comerica Park could want.
The Tigers broke a 2-2 tie with a five-run ****** ault and went on to enjoy a 10-2 romp over the Philadelphia Phillies Friday night.
That's six straight wins for the Tigers (44-50), nine of 10 and they have the best record in baseball since June 1 (22-12).
