Mandatory Credit: Brian Bradshaw Sevald-USA TODAY Sports Acquire Licensing RightsSeptember 28 - The game between Detroit and the visiting Kansas City Royals on Wednesday night was suspended after four innings due to rain with the Tigers leading 4-0. The regularly scheduled Thursday game will begin approximately 40 minutes after the conclusion of the suspended game. Miguel Cabrera, who is retiring at the end of the season, blasted his fourth homer of the season and 511th of his career in the second inning. Rain fell for much of the contest and picked up after the fourth inning, forcing the umpires to call a delay. Cabrera jumped on the first pitch of the second inning, lining it to the opposite field.
