On Monday, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. hit his 40th home run, the first of what will presumably be many seasons in which he reaches that mark. (His previous high? 15. To be fair, he is 22 years old.) Forty is a big number, and harder to reach than you might think. Cal Ripken Jr. never did

PITTSBURGH — Miguel Cabrera used to try to hit batting practice homers out of PNC Park and into the Allegheny River. That was years ago.

Big nights at the plate from Miguel Cabrera and Robbie Grossman powered the Tigers to a win in Pittsburgh, avoiding the series sweep with a 5-1 victory on Wednesday night.
