Los Angeles finally has some good news with a winning record over the last nine games, and it's a plus getting star Mike Trout back in the lineup after missing a month. Patrick Sandoval (3.42 ERA) is on the mound with some control issues, but he catches a break against a Detroit offense that walks the fewest times in the league. The Angels are 196-114 as a road favorite of -125 to -175 and 34-19 versus the AL Central. Detroit is on a 2-9 slide, is ranked last in runs scored and slugging, and the Tigers are the second-worst in on-base percentage. The Tigers are 30-61 against AL teams with an on-base percentage of .320 or less and are on a 16-40 run versus the Angels. Play Los Angeles.
