The O's pounded four long balls two from Luke Scott one Aubrey Huff and one from Melvin Mora to defeat Detroit in game two and tie the four game set. Luke tied the game at two with his first blast a solo one after Pudge hit a two run shot. Then Huff took one to straight away center that hit a covered up post game firwork setup. Guthrie got out of jams with huge double plays and he was getting unkind bloop hits left and right from the Tigers who otherwise would not have had many hits. Then Mora gave the O's the lead for good in the 6th with a two run shot off the top of the foul pole somehting Jim Palmer claims to never have seen in his 40 plus years of big league experience. Then in the eight Luke went deep again with a two tun shot off a hanging slider. Bradford got out of the seventh with a double play. Jim Johnson pitched a scorless 8th and Sherill picked up the save his 29th in the 36 chances with a scorless ninth. The O's play tomrrow with Daniel Cabrera toeing the rubber in a game they very much still need to take a chance to win the series 3-1 on Sunday. Hopefully the bats stay hot and Cabrera pitches deep without giving up too much. Tune in tommorow at 7:00 for a crucial game three vs Detroit. GO O's!!!!
