Catcher Birdie Tebbetts had three hits, plus he threw out Buddy Myer trying to steal second for the game's final out, and the Tigers came from behind to beat the Washington Senators, 6-5 at Briggs Stadium on Wednesday. Jo-Jo White's bases-loaded triple in the fifth inning put the Tigers ahead to stay. Al Simmons' two-run homer in the first inning got the Senators off to a fast start, but they couldn't sustain it, despite rapping out 16 hits.
TIGERS: 46-42; Home: 20-21; Away: 26-21
Tebbetts beat the Senators with his bat AND his arm.
