DETROIT -- Miguel Cabrera helped the Detroit Tigers finish off their second sweep on a homestand in which they won twice as many games as they lost.Detroit, though, dropped a three-game series against the AL Central-leading Cleveland Indians in the middle of the nine-game stretch at Comerica Park to stunt any sort of celebration.Were in third place, Cabrera said after hitting one of three homers for the Tigers in their 10-3 win over the Miami Marlins on Wednesday. We have a long way to go.Indeed.The surging Indians started the day with a 7 1/2-game lead over Detroit and a six-game cushion ahead of second-place Kansas City.You dont want to get swept three games by the team youre chasing, so that was kind of a downside of the homestand, Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said. But 6-3 is a good homestand.Cabrera hit his 18th homer of the season in the fourth inning, tying Billy Williams at No. 48 on baseballs career list with 426. Cabreras latest shot soared into the seats in left-center in a matter of seconds.Its something you dont see very often and I get to see it every time he hits one, teammate Ian Kinsler said. Its a lot of fun to watch.Steven Moya and Jarrod Saltalamacchia cleared the fence in consecutive at-bats in the fifth, giving Detroit an 8-2 lead.Marlins reliever Dustin McGowan gave up all three homers, matching a career high.The Tigers built a cushion right away with a four-run first, getting two runs on Victor Martinezs single off Tom Koehler.Its always going to be tough when you are behind the 8-ball at the end of the first inning, but we got those two runs in the second and got ourselves right back into the game, Miami manager Don Mattingly said. The problem is that we gave one run back, and that just takes all the momentum away from you. It got sloppy after that.Daniel Norris (1-0) struck out a career-high eight and gave up two runs on eight hits and a walk over five innings.Norris started for the second time this season, replacing Matt Boyd in the rotation after he was sent to Triple-A Toledo earlier this month. Ausmus said Norris will make at least one more start.The Marlins put two on in the first before Norris struck out Marcell Ozuna looking and Giancarlo Stanton swinging to end the threat.With the traffic, the strikeouts became very important, Ausmus said.Koehler (6-7) allowed five runs and eight hits in three innings.I dont think I ever got settled in, he said. Thats a great lineup, and they just made me work for everything I got.Koehler had won three straight, and was coming off five starts in which he lasted six innings each time.Ichiro Suzuki had two hits for Miami, increasing his major league total to 2,988.Martin Prado had four hits for the third time this season for the Marlins.TRAINERS ROOMMarlins: Ozuna, who missed Miamis last two home games with a sore wrist, was able to play in both games against Detroit.Tigers: Moya played after testing a knee injury Wednesday morning that he sustained Friday, leading to him missing the next two games.UP NEXTMarlins: LHP Wei-Yin Chen (4-2) will start for Miami when its road trip continues Thursday night at Atlanta.Tigers: RHP Jordan Zimmermann (9-4) takes the mound for Detroit when it begins a road trip Thursday night at Tampa Bay.

LUBBOCK, Texas -- After shooting 61 percent from the floor in its season opener, Texas Techs offense was tepid early against North Texas.On the strength of Zach Smiths double-double (11 points and 11 rebounds) and an advantage in points off turnovers, the Red Raiders defeated the Mean Green 70-43 on Tuesday night.I think (Texas Tech coach Chris Beard) has been pushing me all week and all offseason to crash every time, Smith said.

The Red Raiders outscored North Texas 24-2 in points off turnovers -- North Texas committed 16 turnovers while Texas Tech had seven.Ross has such a diverse game, Beard said. He can do so many different things. In our zone offense, Im comfortable with him on the perimeter or inside. Defensively, he can guard four positions. My thing with Ross is, `How good do you want to be?Deckie Johnson led the Mean Green (1-1) with 13 points. A.J. Lawson finished with 10 points and Jeremy Combs added nine points.I think theyre an NCAA Tournament team, North Texas head coach Tony Benford said of Texas Tech. I think theyre really deep. Well-coached. Balanced. With their depth, they can wear you down. They turned us over a lot early.The Red Raiders outrebounded North Texas 46-37.We couldnt score, Benford said. You got to score. You got to get stops. At the end of the day, you got to score some points. We didnt score enough of them early on.BIG PICTURENorth Texas: The Mean Green did not lead Tuesday and felll to 1-7 all-time against Texas Tech.dddddddddddd They have one more Power Five conference opponent this season when they visit Rutgers on Nov. 23.Texas Tech: Under first year head coach Chris Beard, the Red Raiders count versatility and depth among their strengths. Five Texas Tech players are first-year transfers, three of which are graduate students. Against North Texas, 10 players scored.Doing repetitions on certain plays or certain transition plays, Texas Techs Justin Gray said. I think every game and every single practice that weve had, our chemistry has gotten a lot stronger.BACK TO LUBBOCKBenford was a four-year letter winner for the Red Raiders from 1983-86. Benford was a part of Texas Techs 1986 Southwest Conference title team and earned tournament MVP honors.As a young coach, (Benford) went out of his way to be nice to me in my career, Beard said.
