DETROIT(AP) -- Tigers general manager Dave Dombrowski says he met with Miguel Cabrera following the season to address the slugger's decision to get drunk in between games last week.
Dombrowski said Thursday that Cabrera "knows he made a mistake," adding he's confident Cabrera is going to address the issues that led to problems.
The first baseman with a $152 million contract got drunk enough after Friday night's game. Police say he got in a fight with his wife, leaving him with a bruised and cut face and a trip to a police station, where Dombrowski picked him up.
Dombrowski says he was "upset" when he had to go get Cabrera, but said that wasn't the first time he had do that in his 20 years as a GM.
