The Angels have packed it in, on a 5-16 run. Brett Oberholtzer (5.27 ERA) continues to struggle, a reliever turned starter for this game because the last place Angels can't get anyone out (#26 in pitching ERA). He faces a Detroit offense that is ninth in runs, #10 in on-base percentage, sixth in slugging. The Angels are on an 11-28 run on the road, including 7-25 away against a right-handed starter. 23-year-old righty Michael Fulmer (10-4, 2.58 ERA) has been a gem for the Tigers, allowing 100 hits in 125+ innings with 104 Ks and only 33 walks. He has a 2.63 ERA at home and shut out the Angels in this lone start this season against them where he went 7+ innings, two hits, and eight strikeouts. The Angels are 20-50 away against a team with a winning home record, while the Tigers are 24-6 vs. a starter with a WHIP greater than 1.30. Detroit has won five in a row by scores of 10-5, 8-3, 9-4, 8-5 and 4-2 and will roll again. Play Detroit on the runline.
