The Tigers scored twice in the first inning and it held up on Tuesday night in a 2-1 win over the visiting Chicago Cubs.  Victor Martinez had three hits and an RBI for the Tigers, while Nick Castellanos also drove in a run.  Anthony Rizzo hit a home run for the Cubs, the only damage done against Jordan Zimmermann who tossed six innings and allowed just seven hits.  Game two of a two game series is Wednesday night at Comerica Park.
