Alire Dazzles in 4-1 Philadelphia Win
The Philadelphia Eagles picked up a win at Ford Field, downing the Detroit Lions, 4-1. On the mound for Philadelphia was right-hander Manny Alire, who played a pivotal role in the win. Chris Haeflinger was credited with the save for Philadelphia, his 8th of the season. The Eagles, at 24-23, sit in second place in the National Conference East.

Alire, a native of Caracas, Venezuela, was dealing all game. He kept Detroit hitters off-balance, while giving the Eagles 7.2 quality innings. Alire threw 110 pitches, allowing 3 hits and striking out 7.

"Manny's focus was outstanding. The way he handled every moment -- when there was a little trouble, he didn't lose his tempo or his rhythm," said Philadelphia manager Justin Sykes.
