MINNEAPOLIS -- The Detroit Tigers had Kevin Correia on the ropes in the second inning but missed their first chance to knock him out. Womens Mel Blount Jersey . They didnt miss their second. Torii Hunter had two hits and two RBIs in the Tigers seven-run third inning that propelled them to a 10-6 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Friday night. "We just got pitches that we could drive," said Hunter, who doubled twice among his three hits. "He left some balls up where we could capitalize on them. This guy pitches really well against us. We dont score many runs off him. But tonight we felt good at the plate and I think we were a little patient today and got some pitches we could handle." Nick Castellanos had a home run and three RBIs to back Rick Porcello (3-1), who gave up four runs and six hits with four strikeouts in five-plus innings for the Tigers. Rajai Davis added three hits to raise his average to .354. Correia (0-3) gave up eight runs -- seven earned -- and eight hits in 2 1-3 innings for Minnesota. It was his shortest outing since going just two innings last Aug. 5 against the Royals. Chris Colabello drove in his 27th run for the Twins, setting a franchise record for RBIs in April. Jason Kubel had two doubles among his three hits for the Twins. Brian Dozier hit his seventh homer of the season and Kurt Suzuki drove in two runs, giving him 19 RBIs on the year, which leads all catchers. Correia served up a two-run homer to Castellanos in the second -- and probably only got through that inning thanks to a poor decision by third base coach Dave Clark to send slow-footed Alex Avila from first base on a double by Andrew Romine. Avila was thrown out at home and Ian Kinsler grounded out to short-circuit the rally. "I was missing from the get-go," Correia said. "Balls were just kind of running back over the middle. I got away with it for an inning or so and then it caught up to me." But the Tigers had more in store for Correia. Hunter led off the third with a double and, after Miguel Cabreras groundout, the next five batters reached base with three hits and two walks, the last one from Romine with the bases loaded to make it 5-1. Hunter added a two-run single off Anthony Swarzak later in the inning that pushed the lead to 9-1. "They teach that in baseball: The most important inning is the inning after your team scores," Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said. "We were able to bounce back and score not just a few but seven." There are no statements delivered in April, but the Tigers did throw a little cold water on what has been a surprising start to the season for the Twins. Minnesota has lost at least 96 games in each of the past three years, but rode the second-highest scoring offence in the American League to an 11-10 start that put the Twins right on heavily favoured Detroits heels in the AL Central. "Its something positive you can build off of and thats what were going to do, try to carry it over to the next day," Hunter said. "Usually when you get a loss, as a human being you kind of think about that negative and it can carry over and linger. But since we won and its positive, just try to build off it." After breezing through the first five innings, Porcello didnt get an out in the sixth before being lifted for Justin Miller. Ausmus had to use five more pitchers to finish the game, but that big third inning gave his team plenty of cushion to absorb a four-run sixth by the Twins. NOTES: Twins GM Terry Ryan finished his last round of radiation treatment for cancer, assistant GM Rob Antony said. Ryan is expected to return to Target Field this weekend. ... Avila left the game with a bruised left shin and is day to day. ... Twins OF Oswaldo Arcia was scheduled to fly to Triple-A Rochester on Saturday to start a rehab assignment. Arcia has been on the disabled list since April 5 with a wrist injury. ... RHP Anibal Sanchez (0-2, 3.54 ERA) pitches for Detroit on Saturday against RHP Phil Hughes (1-1, 6.43). Ryan Shazier Jersey . Now the brothers from West Vancouver hope to be teammates for Canada at the world junior championship. Cheap Lynn Swann Jersey . Fisher, one ahead overnight, carded a 5-under-par 67, including seven birdies and two bogeys, at Copperleaf to lie at 18 under after three rounds. His fourth and last tour win was the Irish Open in 2010, when he also played in the Ryder Cup. http://www.steelersauthenticonline.com/Youth-Artie-Burns-Elite-Jersey/ . -- The Orlando Magic finally are showing the patience in critical moments that coach Jacque Vaughn has been waiting for all season.A recent surge by the Toronto Maple Leafs includes their longest win streak in almost a year, though its been 12 since they defeated the Los Angeles Kings at home. The Maple Leafs go for a fifth straight win while attempting to snap a four-game home slide against the Kings at Air Canada Centre on Sunday. Toronto (17-9-3) is 8-1-1 since a 9-2 loss to Nashville on Nov. 18, outscoring the opposition 40-22 in that span and by a 14-5 margin during its four-game winning streak. The Maple Leafs havent put together a longer streak since a six-game run Jan. 12-21. They moved closer to matching that streak Saturday, scoring four unanswered goals in a 4-1 win over Detroit to earn a sweep of a home-and-home set against their Atlantic Division and Original Six rival. We were more energetic, coach Randy Carlyle said. James van Riemsdyk scored against the Red Wings to give him 10 points in the last 10 games. The left wing has collected two goals and as many assists in the past three, and he has five points in six career meetings with Los Angeles (15-10-5). The Maple Leafs, however, have lost four straight against the Kings in Toronto since their last home victory in the series on Nov. 12, 2002. Jonathan Bernier may get a chance to end the slide against his former team after James Reimer tweaked his groin in practice ahead of Saturdays expected start. Bernier stepped in with 27 saves and is 7-1-1 with a 2.34 goals-against average in nine games. Hes also stopped 59 of 61 shots in his last two starts. Bernier suffered a groin injury of his own aat Los Angeles on March 13, stopping eight of 10 shots before Reimer made all 31 stops in the final two periods of a 3-2 victory. David DeCastro Jersey. Bernier was beaten twice in the third period of a 3-1 loss to the Kings in the most recent home meeting on Dec. 11, 2013. The Kings would like a similar performance as they try to solve their poor play in front of the night. Theyve been outscored 12-8 during a 1-3-0 stretch, but that includes Thursdays 5-3 win at Ottawa. Los Angeles followed that up a day later with another frustrating offensive display in a 6-2 loss at Montreal. The Kings finished with a 46-20 shot advantage, dominating the first period at 14-4 only to trail 1-0. We had the puck a lot and we created a lot, but no goals at the end of it, said defenseman Jake Muzzin, who scored on one of his six shots after getting three assists against the Senators. You need goals to win. I thought we battled back and stuck with it and continued trying to fight and get some more goals. It just wasnt happening. Getting production from Anze Kopitar and Jeff Carter would surely help after they led the team with 29 and 27 goals, respectively, last season. Theyve combined for 13 this season, and Carter hasnt found the net for 13 straight games. Kopitar isnt much better with one goal in 12 contests, and both failed to get on the score sheet against the Canadiens while combining for a minus-5 rating. Kopitar, though, had a goal against the Maple Leafs on March 13, while Carter netted one and assisted on another at Toronto last Dec. 11.
