Indians sweep Tigers


Mitch Talbot and Josh Tomlin both finished their rookie seasons with wins as the Cleveland Indians swept a doubleheader from the Detroit Tigers, 4-0 and 4-3, Wednesday night.

Tomlin (6-4) went five innings to beat Tigers ace Justin Verlander (18-9) after Talbot (10-13) pitched seven innings for only his third win in his last 13 starts to beat Max Scherzer (12-11) in the opener.

Cleveland tied its season-high six-game winning streak and beat the Tigers for the eighth straight time at home.
