First basemen pose a double threat

Cleveland beat Detroit, 7-4, on Monday. It was the 102nd loss for the Tigers.
DETROIT (AP) -- Rookies Ben Broussard and Travis Hafner think there's a place for both of them in the Cleveland Indians' future.
The left-handed power hitters -- each of whom plays first base -- combined for four hits, four runs and four RBIs in Monday's 7-4 win over Detroit.
Broussard, who started at first, hit a pair of homers -- including a tie-breaking solo shot in the eighth inning. Hafner, the designated hitter Monday, had a homer and a triple.
For Cleveland manager Eric Wedge, finding time for both players has been a nice dilemma to have.
"I think we'll just have to see what happens in spring training," he said. "But I think we've got room for both of them."
With the score tied at 4, Broussard hit a high fly down the right-field line off Jamie Walker (3-3) that barely cleared the fence.
Down the line
"I knew I hit it on a good part of the bat and it was kind of high," Broussard said. "But I don't really hit a lot of home runs down the line -- I'm more of a gap guy."
Broussard was in a 1-for-21 skid coming in.
Jose Santiago (1-1) pitched 22/3 innings of hitless relief for the win, and David Riske got three outs for his fifth save in 10 chances.
Detroit lost for the 102nd time. The Tigers are trying to avoid breaking the 1962 New York Mets' modern record of 120 losses.
Broussard and Hafner have shown potential this season. Broussard is batting .257 with 12 homers and 42 RBIs, and Hafner is at .267 with 11 homers and 32 RBIs.
They are also good friends off the field.
"We hang out a lot together," Broussard said. "We eat lunch together a lot when we're on the road and we own a fantasy football team together."
Broussard and Hafner got Cleveland off to a good start. The Indians took a 1-0 lead in the second when Hafner tripled and scored. Broussard then hit a two-run homer in the third.
Detroit scored four runs in the fifth to take a 4-3 lead on Brandon Inge's two-run homer and Danny Klassen's two-run double off Cleveland starter Jason Stanford.
Hafner's solo homer with two outs in the sixth tied it.
Jody Gerut's two-run double in the ninth made it 7-4. Gerut, who was 3-for-5 with three RBIs, now has 25 RBIs in 15 games against Detroit.
Trammell's troubles
"I don't think we've done a very good job of pitching to him," Detroit manager Alan Trammell said. "I just looked at the numbers. I would think that our guys would take notice of that and be a little more careful, but we seem to be throwing fastballs out over the plate for him and he seems to crush."
Stanford allowed four runs and six hits in 41/3 innings.
Detroit starter Chris Mears, recalled from Triple-A Toledo earlier in the day, pitched four innings, giving up three runs on seven hits.
