DETROIT -- With two on and two out in the third inning, Miguel Cabrera struck out swinging at a pitch that was low and inside, and the slugger was so off balance he ended up on one knee.He made up for that missed opportunity his next time up.Cabreras three-run homer highlighted Detroits seven-run fifth inning, and the Tigers beat the Miami Marlins 7-5 on Tuesday night. Jose Iglesias and Nick Castellanos also homered during Detroits big inning, which came after Adam Conley had been dominant through four.Cabreras 17th homer came on a full-count pitch after he struck out twice earlier in the game.He kind of went into battle mode with two strikes, Detroit manager Brad Ausmus said. And then (Conley) left an off-speed pitch up in the zone, and Miggy can hit those as far as anyone.Mike Pelfrey (2-7) allowed four runs and 12 hits in 5 1/3 innings, and that performance was enough for the win.Giancarlo Stanton hit a two-run homer for Miami.Conley (4-5) struck out six in the first two innings. He caught Cabrera looking in the first and swinging in the third, but when the Detroit slugger came up a third time, he hit a drive well beyond the fence in left-center field to give the Tigers a 5-3 lead.Cabrera was a changeup that I didnt feel committed to throwing, Conley said. We went hard at him in the first at-bat, and that let me get him to chase a slider in the second at-bat, so thats a smart pitch. There wasnt really any rhyme or reason to throwing the changeup, and he was sitting on something soft.Four relievers finished the game for Detroit after Pelfreys departure. Francisco Rodriguez pitched a hitless ninth for his 21st save in 23 chances.The Tigers were in a bit of a funk after being swept in a three-game series by AL Central-leading Cleveland. Detroit made three errors in the first five innings Tuesday.Stanton opened the scoring in the second with his 15th homer of the season, but the Marlins couldnt break the game open when they had the chance.Miami led 3-0 in the fifth when Iglesias connected for a two-run shot. After Cabrera went deep, Conley was taken out, and Nick Wittgren allowed a two-run drive by Castellanos.Conley was coming off a sparkling outing against Atlanta in which he threw eight scoreless innings. He looked terrific against the Tigers before his night unraveled in the fifth. The left-hander ended up allowing five runs and five hits in 4 1/3 innings. He walked three and struck out nine.NUMBER 30Cabrera has now homered against all 30 major league teams, and it was fitting that he completed that feat against the Marlins, the team he made his debut for.We got the lead that inning with a home run, and it was more special because of that -- and we win the game, Cabrera said.TRANSACTIONSMiami purchased the contract of left-hander Jo-Jo Reyes from Triple-A New Orleans, and right-hander Paul Clemens was claimed off waivers by San Diego.

North Melbourne are a blank AFL canvas for Jack Ziebell to work with and the newly-installed skipper plans to create a masterpiece.The 25-year-old fulfilled his long-held ambition to succeed Andrew Swallow as Norths skipper this week - a job he has long been groomed for.He takes over at a tricky time for the Roos, who farewelled 1345 games of AFL experience when veterans Brent Harvey, Drew Petrie, Michael Firrito and Nick Dal Santo were sensationally moved on at the end of the season.The quartets departure has changed the age profile of the clubs list dramatically, which Ziebell believes offers him a rare opportunity.Obviously it was sad to see those old guys leave, but weve got 11 out of 44 guys this year who are brand new to the footy club, Ziebell told reporters on Friday.There are a lot of guys who are almost putty ready to be moulded, in a sense, so were looking forward to getting stuck in as leaders to help shape them into the players that we want them to be ... the custodians of this great footy club.Our playing list is a lot younger than it has been over previous years .dddddddddddd.. theres a lot of excitement around that.Our job as leaders is to set the expectations for our young guys and make sure the standards we set are being met.Ziebell denies theres a rebuild in progress at Arden Street despite the emphasis on youth and playing list regeneration.Theres talk of rebuilds but for us ... weve never gone down that track, he said.You try and tell the 44 guys out there that theyre rebuilding - its not a very positive thing to say.Weve never really dipped to the bottom of the ladder and were not looking to. Its important that we train well and do everything right.Robbie Tarrant, who won his first club best and fairest award this season, was named vice-captain with Jamie Macmillan and Shaun Higgins deputy vice-captains, and Swallow rounding out the five-man leadership group for 2017.
