Tigers hold off KC to close trip on high note
(MLB.com Detroit Tigers)

The Tigers ended a grueling 11-game, 10-day road trip on a high note thanks to an early offensive outburst and some stingy relief. J.D. Martinez`s two-run double fueled a four-run third inning, building a lead that Warwick Saupold and three other relievers held with 5 ⅓ innings of one-run ball for a 6-5 win over the Royals on Wednesday night at Kauffman Stadium.
