Detroit at Los Angeles

Detroit is 3,000 miles from home and looks worn down having lost three in a row. They play their ninth straight road game today, the end of a long trip, all on the West Coast. The offense has gone south, scoring a TOTAL of one run the last three games! And the pitching staff hasn't been much better surrendering 18 runs the last two games. They hope Doug Fister can get things going, but he is 2-3 against the Angels. The Tigers are 6-18 in their last 24 road games vs. a left-handed starter and face C.J. Wilson, with the Angels 8-3 in his last 11 starts. Detroit has slipped below .500 on the road and the Angels are 40-19 in their last 59 home games against a team with a losing road record. LA has owned the Tigers, winning five straight against them and the Tigers are 14-38 in the last 52 meetings in Anaheim. Play the Angels.
