"Detroit Tigers first baseman Miguel Cabrera, who was 0-for-14 before getting an RBI-single Sunday in the eighth inning, is playing at less than 100 percent.

"Miggy's fine," said Tigers manager Jim Leyland. "He's the least of my worries. His back was sore and he has a big bruise on his leg. But he plays. That kid, he's a champ. He's like the mailman – rain, sleet or snow and he shows up."

Cabrera, the only Tiger to start all 36 games, was in the American League's top 10 in batting average (.320), home runs (seven) and RBIs (24)."
