"Really, my whole approach was just to take, because (Detroit's Brandon Lyon) wasn't even close with (Michael Cuddyer). Then he threw strikes, and my approach completely changed, just hit one up the middle," Crede said. "I saw with the previous hitters, he was flipping that curveball in there for strikes, so really, I was just sitting on it."
The grand slam was the seventh of Crede's career and the second walk-off grand slam he's hit. When was the other?
"Against Toronto in 2002," Crede said with a wide smile. "You never forget those."
Crede has now hit safely in 11 of his last 12 games. He's batting .294 with four home runs, 10 RBIs and 10 runs during that time.
TWINS 14, TIGERS 10 (13 innings): Minnesota's bullpen surrendered two leads, but after RHP Jesse Crain allowed Detroit to score the go-ahead run in the top of the 13th by balking Curtis Granderson home, 3B Joe Crede came through with a walk-off grand slam.
