CLEVELAND -- Miguel Cabrera had his second consecutive four-hit game, this one featuring two home runs and four RBIs, to lead the Detroit Tigers to an 8-5 win over the Cleveland Indians Sunday at Progressive Field.

The red-hot Tigers extended their season-opening winning streak to six games by sweeping the three-game series in Cleveland, outscoring the Indians 25-15.

First baseman Cabrera belted a three-run home run in the first inning and added a solo shot in the sixth, his first two home runs of the season. In the three game series Cabrera hit .786 (11-for-14). In the last two games of the series he was 8-for-9. At the start of the series Cabrera was hitting .182. At the end of the series he was hitting .520

Left-hander Kyle Lobstein made his first start of the season for the Tigers and pitched five innings, allowing three runs on eight hits. Cleveland's starter, left-hander T.J. House, was also making his first start of the season, but House did not get through the second inning.

Detroit jumped on House for three runs in the first inning. House walked leadoff hitter and center fielder Rajai Davis, and gave up a single to second baseman Ian Kinsler. Cabrera then belted a 1-1 pitch over the left-field wall for his first home run, giving the Tigers a 3-0 lead.

Cleveland got a run back in the bottom of the first. Center fielder Michael Bourn led off with a single, went to second on a groundout, stole third and scored on a two-out single by first baseman Carlos Santana

House did not record his first out of the first inning until his 28th pitch, and he threw 35 pitches in the inning overall. The top of the Tigers order continued its assault on House in the second inning.

With one out Davis singled and Kinsler walked. Cabrera singled to left field, scoring Davis and moving Kinsler to second. Designated hitter Victor Martinez walked, loading the bases. Right fielder J.D. Martinez followed with a two-run single, scoring Kinsler and Cabrera to extend Detroit's lead to 6-1.

The Indians rallied for two runs in the third inning. With one out Santana singled. Lobstein retired left fielder Jerry Sands on a fly ball for the second out, but right fielder Brandon Moss doubled into the right-field corner, sending Santana to third. Designated hitter Ryan Raburn followed with a single to center, scoring Santana and Moss and cutting the Detroit lead to 6-3.

But Cabrera struck again leading off the fourth inning. He hit his second homer of the game over the wall in left field to give the Tigers a 7-3 lead.

The Indians scored two more runs in the eighth inning on an RBI groundout by third baseman Lonnie Chisenhall and a sacrifice fly by catcher Roberto Perez that made it 7-5. A solo home run by J.D. Martinez off right-hander Shaun Marcum in the ninth made the final score 8-5.

Lobstein (1-0) got the win, and Joakim Soria pitched the ninth inning to pick up his second save.

The loss went to House, who gave up six runs on six hits and three walks in 1 1/3 innings.
