Thank goodness for that; I get cold just watching this on television.
Surprisingly they aren't in the lead for most gidp, close, right there in the top spots but I agree they will need to start doing a better job staying out of those, notice Kansas City is towards the top as well here

Tigers beat the indians 4 - 1.
Finally....Tigers Victory Cigar!!!!! and a bowl of ice-cream!!!
STREAKS AND STATS:
Rajai Davis stole three bases Saturday afternoon, giving him six stolen base for the season, giving him the team lead over Jose Iglesias, who got his fifth of the season in the sixth. As a team the Tigers now have an AL-leading 19 stolen bases, second overall in MLB to the Cincinnati Reds (20).
Davis two-stolen base game also handed him his second multi-stolen base game of the season. He also stole two bases on April 12 at Cleveland.
The Tigers' five stolen bases in a game marked their most in a game since Sept. 5, 2007, against the White Sox.
Victor Martinez's two-hit, three-RBI day marked the third multi-hit game of the season for Martinez.
Davis extended his hitting streak to eight games, which marks a personal best for the season and is tied for the third-longest active hitting streak in the AL. It was also the second multi-hit game of the season for him.
Miguel Cabrera's three intentional walks mark the fourth time since 1914 a Tiger has been intentionally walked three times in a game. The last Tigers player to be intentionally walked three times was Cabrera on August 15, 2010 at Chicago against the White Sox.
Cabrera's three-walk game is the second of his career, and his four-walk day is a career-first. Cabrera is also the first four-walk game by a Tiger since Matt Tuiasosopo did it on May 19, 2013 at Texas against the Rangers.
What does any of that have to do with his defense?
