Pulling him after 8 was 100% the right move.

Tigers 6 - Royals 3 ? Detroit?s top producers, Max Scherzer and Miguel Cabrera, led the way to victory and a 3-2 series win. Cabrera followed up Saturday?s game-winning blast with a first-pitch laser off Bruce Chen, his 40th, snapping Chen?s scoreless skein at 18 IP and staking Scherzer to a 2-0 lead in the 1st inning. A 2-out Miggy ribby helped build the lead to 4-0 before K.C.?s first RISP chance, in the 6th, and Chen was tagged twice more before the Royals finally got on the board.

Scherzer (8 IP, 2 R) booked his 18th win in his 25th start, and Detroit?s 124th game. In 2011, Justin Verlander got his 18th win (en route to 24) in his 27th start, but Detroit?s 122nd game. Scherzer will start 7 more times, most likely.
?At 18-1, Scherzer is in range of two records for winning percentage. Greg Maddux owns the standard for 20+ decisions (19-2, .905 W% in 1995), while Ron Guidry holds the mark for 20+ wins (25-3, .893 W% in 1978). A final Scherzer mark of at least 20 wins and no more than 2 losses would bag both records.
?Scherzer hasn?t gone past 8 innings this year, but his 6.89 IP/G ranks 6th among those with 20 starts. He?s gone 8 innings 7 times (5th), 7 IP or more 16 times (4th), and 6+ IP 23 times (3rd). With 20 quality starts in 25 outings, his QS% is tied for 5th.
?Cabrera had homered on his previous pitch in this series, and also on the last pitch he saw from Chen, Oct. 1, 2012. His updated stats in that matchup: 15 for 34, 5 HRs, 9 walks. Which makes you wonder about the decision not to walk him in the 3rd inning, man on 2nd and 2 outs. Chen did pass him in a similar spot in the 5th.
?Miggy in 2-out RISP chances: 23 for 51, 8 HRs.

Miguel Cabrera taking place as Detroit's most dominant athlete ever.
from the detnews

he is the best hitter in the game but to say he is the most dominant Detroit athlete ever isn't accurate. He is basically a one dimentional baseball player. Every other major sport has had at least one player that is more dominant than Cabrera and most played their entire career in Detroit. Heck...he isn't even better than Kaline or Cobb.

Better Hitter than Kaline, and Al has gone on record to say the same. Not taking anything away from Al, he was a Chess Master playing checkers playing baseball. A HOF Hitter and a Legendary GOAT Rightfielder......but Miggy has more Power. Cobb is the Standard.
Greats like Al, Greenberg, Heilmann, Gehringer, Crawford, ..Miggy is right there now as I see it as a Greenberg type with the Power and Average.
If Cabrera signs another contract to 'effectively' retire as a Tiger, Miggy will be next to Cobb All-Time in Tigers History. jmho.

Kaline was a complete player...not the hitter that Miggy is though.
