Anibal Sanchez ? Allowed only a solo home run in five innings of work while striking out four.

Justin Upton ? DINGER! He walked twice and scored two runs.

Victor Martinez -- 3-run shot in the ninth inning as a pinch hitter.

All 20 fans in attendance ? You made your voices heard!

Announced paid attendance today: 18,374.
Best guess for fans in the seats: 750.

Victor Martinez is the first Tiger to hit 3 pinch hit home runs in a season since Larry Herndon in 1986.

The Tigers have 4 players with 25-or-more home runs in a season for the first time in franchise history.

September 23 in Tigers and mlb history:

1905: Detroit rookie Ty Cobb 18, hits his first home run, off Cy Falkenberg, an inside-the-park blow in an 8 - 5 loss at Washington.

1915: In Philadelphia, Detroit's Ty Cobb swipes his 90th base of the year. Only 300 fans are on hand to witness the event. Cobb will finish with 96 stolen bases, a record that will last until 1962.

1933: Despite the 5th-place Tigers' 5 - 3 win over the Browns, manager Bucky Harris submits his resignation. Babe Ruth's name will be prominent in the newspapers as a possible replacement.

1984 - Sparky Anderson becomes the first manager ever to win 100 games in a season with two different clubs as the Tigers beat the Yankees, 4 - 1. Anderson had led the Cincinnati Reds to 100-win seasons in 1970, 1975, and 1976.

1987: Bill Madlock collects his 2,000th career hit as the Tigers beat Boston, 4 - 0, on Doyle Alexander's 2-hitter.
