Cleveland manager Manny Acta watched his team pummel the Detroit Tigers once again -- then sounded a note of caution. "The championship goes through Detroit," Acta said. "They beat us up pretty good last year, the whole division, and they're a very good ballclub. It's still very early." Michael Brantley hit a three-run homer after a Detroit error kept a first-inning rally going, and Johnny Damon added a two-run single and an impressive catch in left field to help Cleveland to a 9-6 victory over the Tigers on Wednesday night.
