AL | Tigers top O's; Jays win

DETROIT - Gary Sheffield homered off Daniel Cabrera two innings after the Baltimore starter hit him with a pitch, leading the Detroit Tigers to an 8-4 victory over the Orioles last night.

Cabrera hit Sheffield in the third inning, and the pair had to be pulled apart during a bench-clearing incident in the fifth before Sheffield got the last word with a homer estimated at 408 feet.

Sheffield watched the drive sail into the left-field stands from home plate before he slowly trotted around the bases.
