Los Angeles at Detroit

The Los Angeles Angels are tough to face, second in baseball in runs scored, tops in slugging. The Angels have a winning road record and are 5-1 following a loss. Los Angeles has left-hander Hector Santiago on the hill, who is throwing well. He was solid in a 3-2 loss to Oakland on Monday, limiting the Athletics to one run in seven innings.  He also has a 2.48 ERA in 10 career games against Detroit, including three starts. The Angels are 9-3 in their last 12 after scoring two runs or less in their previous game. After facing strikeout ace Max Scherzer yesterday, the Angels will find Rick Porcello much more hittable. He is off a 6-0 loss to the light-hitting Padres, allowing 10 hits in 6+ innings along with five runs. The Tigers are 1-5 against a team with a losing record and 0-4 following a win. The Angels are 10-1 in the last 11 meetings with the Tigers, including 4-1 in the last five meetings in Detroit. Play the Los Angeles Angels.
