A trio of Tigers homers off of Twins starter Pierson Ohl gave Detroit a 4-3 lead in the third inning and knocked Ohl out of the game. But Minnesota's offense had plenty of punching left to do. Brooks Lee, after singling and scoring in the second inning, launched a 430-foot bomb to the deepest park of the park in the fourth, tying the game at 4-4.
