Orioles 13, Tigers 3: Chris Davis homered twice and drove in five runs and Taylor Teagarden swatted a three-run blast as visiting Baltimore routed Detroit in the rubber match of the three-game series.

Davis clubbed his major league-leading 25th and 26th homers and added an RBI double to support Chris Tillman (8-2), who labored through five-plus innings to win his fourth consecutive start as the Orioles moved a season-high 11 games over .500. Adam Jones had a pair of hits and three RBIs and Nate McLouth added three hits as Baltimore improved to 8-3 in its last 11.

Tigers right-hander Rick Porcello (4-4) had his worst outing in two months, surrendering six runs - all in the fourth inning - on nine hits in six innings. Matt Tuiasosopo had a two-run pinch-hit double for Detroit, which was outscored 18-5 in the last two games after winning the series opener.

Davis broke a scoreless deadlock in the fourth when he lofted a two-run, opposite-field shot off Porcello over the fence in left field. Teagarden, batting .043 (1-for-23) coming into the contest, made it 5-0 with a three-run blast into the seats in left before Manny Machado's RBI single capped the six-run outburst.

The Tigers cut into the deficit on Omar Infante's RBI double in the fourth and Tuiasosopo's ground-rule double in the sixth to make it 6-3, but Baltimore answered with three runs in its next at-bat and tacked on four more in the ninth, including Davis' second two-run shot.

GAME NOTEBOOK: Davis had his second five-RBI game of the year to help Tillman win his fifth consecutive decision and improve to 6-0 on the road while giving up three runs on seven hits. ... Tuiasosopo improved to 3-for-10 with six RBIs as a pinch hitter for Detroit. .. The Tigers will host AL East-leading Boston for four games beginning Thursday while the Orioles have a day off before opening a three-game series at surging Toronto on Friday night.
