DETROIT (AP) - Riley Greene had a three-run homer and four RBIs, Drew Anderson ended the game by retiring Jakob Marsee in a 14-pitch at-bat for his first major league save and the Detroit beat the Miami Marlins 6-1 Saturday to get A.J Hinch his 400th win as Tigers manager.

Rookie Kevin McGonigle scored twice for Detroit, which has won two straight following a five-game losing streak. Spencer Torkelson reached base three times, including an eighth-inning RBI single.

Marlins catcher Agustín Ramírez and first baseman Connor Norby made errors, raising Miami’s NL-high total to 15 in 15 games.
