ATLANTA (AP) - Andrew Miller and the Detroit Tigers certainly enjoyed interleague play. Miller combined with Chad Durbin for a six-hit shutout, and the Tigers beat the slumping Atlanta Braves 5-0 Sunday night for their seventh straight win all on the road against National League teams.
The AL Central-leading Tigers finished 14-4 in interleague games, tying the Angels for the best mark in the majors.
"Don't ask me how that happens," said Detroit manager Jim Leyland. "Last year we were 15-3 and this year 14-4 that's pretty good. ... It's not like we had some easy schedule to go through."
