    Detroit Tigers manager Jim Leyland was up late Thursday night trying to think of ways he could shuffle the lineup to give his struggling offense a spark.

    While he was racking his brain, he said he came to the realization that the only way the AL Central favorites were going to turn things around was if he stuck with his slumping sluggers until they pulled out of it.

    That faith paid off on Friday night.

    Prince Fielder had three hits and two RBIs and the Tigers offense broke out in a big way in a 10-6 victory over the Minnesota Twins.
