Final Score: Detroit 10 - Baltimore 11

Baltimore, MD (Sports Network) - Luke Scott smacked a game-winning solo home run with one out in the bottom of the 10th inning to cap a remarkable 11-10 comeback win for the Baltimore Orioles over the Detroit Tigers in the third installment of a four-game set.

Scott finished 3-for-5 with two RBI as the Orioles, who gave up six runs in the first inning, recorded their 30th come-from-behind victory of the season and second straight win overall.

Melvin Mora went 3-for-5 with a home run and three RBI, while Ramon Hernandez also knocked in three and tied the game with a solo home run in the ninth to send the game into extra innings.

Scott's heroics made a winner of George Sherrill (3-4), who tossed a shaky 10th. Baltimore starter Daniel Cabrera withstood a horrific start, surrendering seven runs -- six earned -- on five hits and five walks in five frames.

Miguel Cabrera homered and drove in four runs, while Jeff Larish ripped a two- run shot for Detroit, which has dropped five of its last seven affairs. Placido Polanco went 4-for-6 with two doubles, an RBI and three runs scored in defeat.

Nate Robertson was credited with allowing seven runs on eight hits in 2 1/3 frames, his shortest outing of the season. Joel Zumaya blew his first save, and Freddy Dolsi (1-4) was saddled with the loss due to serving up Scott's blast.

In the top of the 10th, Adam Jones threw out Polanco at the plate. Polanco appeared to slide under the tag, but he was nonetheless called out. Scott wasted little time cranking his 17th home run of the year off Dolsi with one away in the bottom half, a no-doubter over the right field wall to end a thrilling win at Camden Yards.

"We got the guys to look at the replay and he (Polanco) was clearly safe," Tigers manager Jim Leyland said. "The umpire doesn't have that luxury. He has to call it on a split-second judgment. They were bearing down and they were right on top of the plate, and he just missed it. That doesn't excuse blowing the lead like we did. Blaming umpires, that's not an excuse."

Cabrera quickly put the Orioles in a hole by loading the bases with no outs in the first. Magglio Ordonez smacked a sac fly to center to bring in a run, and Cabrera took a payoff pitch over the right-center field wall for a three-run homer.

The Tigers weren't done as Matt Joyce worked a walk and Larish took the first pitch he saw to right for his second homer of the year.

"We got off to a terrible start," Orioles skipper Dave Trembley said of his starter. "Six pitches and we're basically behind 6-0. The ball wasn't coming out of Cabrera's hand very well. There wasn't much finish to it. You've got to give him credit, he was a horse. He put three zeros up. He was totally gassed to get through five."

The Orioles started chipping away at the 6-0 deficit in the bottom of the first thanks to Mora's two-run homer to left.

Cabrera recorded an RBI groundout in the second to make it a 7-2 game, but the lead would quickly vanish when Baltimore batted around in the third.

A double and single preceded Mora's RBI single up the middle, while Kevin Millar and Scott recorded back-to-back run-scoring base-hits to chase Robertson from the game.

Aquilino Lopez came in and got Jones to fly out, but was roped for two straight RBI singles by Hernandez and Brandon Fahey. Brian Roberts capped the big inning with a double down the right field line to score Hernandez for the go-ahead run.

"I've seen similar type bats like this and every time it happens it makes you a little bit more proud to be around these guys," Trembley remarked. "They will not quit at all, ever."

Baltimore loaded the bases again in the fourth but only registered one run on Hernandez's deep sacrifice fly to center.

The Tigers brought home three in the sixth after blowing their six-run lead. Dennis Sarfate could not hang on to the 9-7 Orioles edge after relieving Cabrera, who retired eight of the final nine batters he faced.

After a single and passed ball put Curtis Granderson on second, Sarfate wheeled and threw a pickoff attempt into center field, moving Granderson to third. Polanco blooped a single to knock him in and scored the tying run later in the inning on another Ordonez sacrifice fly to center.

Joyce brought in the go-ahead run with a double to right, and the Tigers' bullpen silenced the Orioles until the ninth.

Zumaya remained in the game after a perfect eighth, but Hernandez smashed the first pitch he saw into the left field seats to tie the game at 10.
