DETROIT -- Prince Fielder didnt feel any pressure in a big situation. Fielder hit a tiebreaking three-run homer in the eighth inning and Delmon Young followed with a solo shot to lift the Detroit Tigers to a 7-3 win over the Minnesota Twins on Thursday and a split of the four-game series. Miguel Cabreras RBI single for Detroit in the eighth tied it 3-all. The hit scored Austin Jackson, who tripled with one out before pinch hitter Quintin Berry walked. That set the stage for Fielder. "Its exciting. ... Miguel took a lot of the pressure off. I cant say enough about the way he played today," said Fielder about Cabrera, who was 2 for 4 with two RBIs. "Like I said, Im just glad those three guys in the eighth there really set the tone." Alex Burnett (2-1) relieved starter Scott Diamond to begin the eighth inning after Diamond allowed two runs and five hits in seven innings. He walked one and struck out four.

"I was fired up that you could tell hes been putting some good swings on some balls and not getting anything from it, just barely missing them and seeing him get that at that point, Ill take that all day.

"I figure itll be fun to do, plus the fans want to see it, might as well do it."

It appeared to be Lairds ball, but both starter Rick Porcello and Fielder went after it. Porcello got a glove on the ball, but the 275-pound Fielder, running at full speed, knocked both players to the ground and the ball out of Porcellos glove. Laird, who got hit in the eye by Fielders elbow, lay face down on the ground and had to be checked by Detroits medical staff. He eventually got to his feet and remained in the game. Fielder said he called the ball but no one heard him. "It wasnt loud enoughh, I dont think I was loud enough.dddddddddddd Yeah, I wasnt loud enough," he said. "Yeah, I think we just both called for it," Laird said. "It gets loud, because the crowd really gets going, and you just kind of -- you see it all the time, for some reason, you just dont hear the other person." Carroll eventually flied out. Anthony Swarzak replaced Robertson in the eight after he surrendered Fielders home run and Young sent a 0-1 pitch over the fence in right centre. It was originally called a double but it went to instant replay and was changed to a homer. It was Youngs seventh home run.
