Angels Saddle Tigers with 3-1 Loss
Andy Messersmith propelled his team to victory over the Detroit Tigers. The final score was 3-1, Los Angeles. Messersmith yielded 1 run over 6.2 innings to notch the win. He scattered 4 hits, walked 1, and struck out 3. His record improves to 1-2. Francisco Rodriguez nailed down his 7th save.

The Tigers had been locked in a 0-0 tie with the Angels going into the bottom of the fourth inning. That changed quickly when the 32-year old second baseman Bobby Grich came to the plate. Grich hit a 2-run double on a first pitch slider from Detroit hurler Jim Bunning. It was Grich's 4th double of the year.

"I tell our guys all the time, 'Every pitch is the right pitch if you put it in the right place, you believe in it and have conviction,'" Los Angeles manager said.

The third-place Angels sport a record of 19-21.
