MLB scores: Kerry Carpenter leads Tigers to win over Mets DETROIT (AP) — Kerry Carpenter hit a three-run homer and scored twice to help the Detroit Tigers beat the New York Mets 6-2 on Wednesday.

SEPTEMBER 4 • THESTAR.COM

Goes yard in win Carpenter went 1-for-3 with a walk, a three-run home run and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Mets.

Impact Carpenter delivered a key blast against New York reliever Ryan Helsley in the seventh inning, his 21st home run of the season against right-handed pitching among 23 long balls overall. The Detroit outfielder continues to hit the bench frequently when southpaws are on the hill, as he's sporting just a .575 OPS in those matchups. However, Carpenter is a big offensive threat when he has the platoon advantage, and he now has a robust .840 OPS versus righties.

Gets on base four times in loss Carpenter went 3-for-4 with a double, a walk and one run scored in Monday's 8-3 loss to the Athletics.

Impact Carpenter has gone 4-for-30 (.133) over eight games since his last multi-hit effort. He was able to break out of the funk with the bat, though his performance didn't directly lead to much offense for the Tigers. The outfielder is up to a .264/.300/.524 slash line with 22 home runs, 50 RBI, 55 runs scored, 17 doubles, four triples and one stolen base over 103 games this season. He continues to see a large share of playing time between designated hitter and the corner-outfield spots.

On bench versus lefty Carpenter is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Impact Detroit is stocking up on extra right-handed bats to counter Astros southpaw Framber Valdez, so Carpenter will hit the bench for the series finale along with fellow left-handed hitters Zach McKinstry, Trey Sweeney and Colt Keith. Carpenter -- who had started in each of the last 10 games -- is slashing just .213/.224/.383 over 49 plate appearances against southpaws this season.

Mashes 22nd homer Carpenter went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and two walks Saturday in an 8-5 win against Minnesota.

Impact Carpenter smacked the only long ball of the contest, going deep to right-center field in the third inning. It was the outfielder's 22nd homer of the season, which has already established a career-high mark. Carpenter had an IL stint due to a hamstring injury in July that cost him nearly a month of action, so his home-run total has come in just 96 contests. On the campaign, his 14.68 AB/HR ranks 15th among MLB players with at least 100 plate appearances.
