Hawthorn dont much care if theyre perceived as flying under the radar but opponents should underestimate them at their peril, warns premiership forward Luke Breust.The Hawks have quietly gone about their business in their bid to claim an historic fourth flag in succession.Theyve racked up nine wins in a row to sit two games clear on the ladder with four matches left in the home-and-away season.But the rise of Greater Western Sydney and the impressive form of Sydney, Geelong and Adelaide have captured much of the media spotlight as the battle for the remaining top four spots heats up in the run to the finals.Its been interesting to see how thats unfolded ... maybe its because we were just falling over the line in some games that we were flying under the radar a little bit, Breust said on Tuesday.There was (some) thinking that we could be knocked off, thats sort of worked in our favour I think.But I dont think (were being underrated) and if they are then I guess they do so at their own peril because were hopefully going to finish top four.Were two games clear now with four games to go. That was the goal at the start of the year.Hawthorn will attempt to make it 10 wins on the trot when they take on Melbourne at the MCG on Saturday.Star duo Cyril Rioli (unspecified injury) and Paul Puopolo (hip) missed the scrappy win over Carlton in Launceston at the weekend but the Hawks are hopeful of regaining them.The pair trained on Tuesday but must pass fitness tests later in the week to play the Demons.Hopefully they can get a full week of training in ... it would be nice to have them back, Breust said.I cant remember playing without both of them before. It would certainly be nice to have all three of us together putting on some forward pressure and trying to kick a few goals.They ran today and theyll have to get through Thursdays session to be any chance on Saturday.

DETROIT -- The Detroit Tigers have been losing to Cleveland all season, so it was fitting that the Indians celebrated their AL Central title at Comerica Park.Its hard to explain the one-sided nature of this series this year. All the Tigers know is that theyll be in real trouble if it doesnt change soon.Buck Farmer allowed four runs in five innings, and Detroit couldnt rally against the Cleveland bullpen, losing 7-4 on Monday night to fall two games behind Baltimore for the second AL wild card. The Indians clinched the division crown, improving to 14-2 against the Tigers this season.I cant really explain it, but the truth is, theyve outplayed us, Detroit manager Brad Ausmus said. Theyve outhit us, theyve outpitched us, theyve out-defended us. Its simple.Corey Kluber left after four innings with right groin tightness, joining Carlos Carrasco and Danny Salazar in a group of talented Cleveland pitchers dealing with injuries. But even those concerns were secondary when the Indians poured onto the field to celebrate their first division title since 2007.Its hard, man. It is so hard to explain how hard winning is, manager Terry Francona said. Weve had some challenges thrown our way, but so has everyone else. We managed to get this far, and now we get to play more baseball.Cleveland last made the postseason in 2013 as a wild card.Coco Crisp and Roberto Perez homered for the Indians, and Jason Kipnis doubled in a run.Farmer (0-1) yielded four hits and four walks.Andrew Miller (10-1) won in relief, and Cody Allen pitched the ninth for his 30th save in 33 chances.Crisp and Detroits J.D. Martinez traded two-run homers in the second, and Cleveland took the lead for good in the fifth on the double by Kipnis. Mike Napolis sacrifice fly later that inning made it 4-2.With the division title 15 outs away, the Indians took the field for the bottom of the fifth without their ace. Kluber, the team leader with 18 wins, was replaced by Dan Otero, and the announcement about the 2014 AL Cy Young Award winners groin problem ccame a little while later.ddddddddddddMiguel Cabrera made it 4-3 with an RBI single, but Perez led off the seventh with a drive to right to put the Indians back up by two.Cabrera added another run-scoring single in the seventh, but Perez -- who entered the game hitting .168 -- answered with another big hit in the eighth, lining an RBI single up the middle.Cleveland made it 7-4 on an error by Martinez in right.Miller, the third reliever for the Indians, struck out four of the six hitters he faced before giving way to Allen. The final out came on a strikeout by Cameron Maybin.Now the Tigers have to face the prospect of three more games this week against a Cleveland team thats dominated them.Try to win the next game. Theres nothing you can do, second baseman Ian Kinsler said. You play hard, you prepare, you get ready to play, hopefully it turns around one particular day, and hopefully that days tomorrow.FRIENDLY CROWDThe Indians werent able to clinch the division at home, but Detroit is only about 170 miles from Cleveland, and there were plenty of fans chanting Lets Go Tribe! after this one was over. A large group of Indians supporters gathered behind their dugout on the first base side.It was awesome, especially that last inning when theyre all chanting, going crazy, Napoli said. Obviously, we wanted to do it at home, but to be able to come here, play Detroit, a team that we can get it done against, its nice.TRAINERS ROOMIndians: Salazar (strained forearm) threw a bullpen session before the game.Tigers: Ausmus said 3B Nick Castellanos (left hand) could be back before the weekend. Hes currently in the instructional league.UP NEXTIndians: Cleveland sends RHP Mike Clevinger (2-2) to the mound Tuesday night at Detroit.Tigers: Detroit counters with RHP Justin Verlander (15-8), who struck out 11 against Minnesota last Thursday.---Follow Noah Trister at www.Twitter.com/noahtrister ' ' '
