Anaheim, CA - Do you like to hit?

Yes, Tiger did it.

Do you like positive basic running?

They did, too.

Do you love perseverance and perseverance and want all of this to be stuffed into a dramatic situation? Welcome to the eighth inning on May 1 as the Tigers scored five runs in a 10-4 victory over the Los Angeles Angels.

Let's set the scene: Angelis led 4-2 in the eighth, but the Tigers didn't play two guys. Then they refused to lose.

Andy Ibanez faces the left-handed Reid tip. Ibanez was excellent in the Bat race, hitting the center in the field where Riley Greene drove. Then, it became even more interesting when center fielder Jo Adell waved the ball and the Tigers didn't hesitate. They run the base as hard as they do all season. This puts pressure on the Tigers guys in second and third.

When Spencer Torkelson appeared, the Angel brought the infield in. Torkelson ranks third. But then Zach McKinstry went single to center, drove and led 4-4. McKinstry now has 11 straight wins, matching his career highest. McKinstery was able to advance to second after Adel threw the ball into the middle of the infield. A better basic running. More stress is increased.

Dillon Dingler was released to win. All he had to do was lift a long flying ball to knock on the door, and he did better. He crushed a three-round home run.

In the ninth inning, Ibanez added another RBI single, giving the Tigers more room to breathe. Torkelson then hit two home runs, turning it into a rout.

Javier Baez hosts a show

It's hard to say what Javier Baez's most impressive thing about Los Angeles.

Baez hits home run. Or the home run he took away.

In the third inning, Báez homes on the left, opening a 95mph fastball. This is his second home run a few days after hitting a Grand Slam in Houston on April 30.

But it was his defense that fell. At the bottom of the fifth inning, Jorge Soler hit a long fly ball and entered the deep court. Baz appears to be gliding in the outfield and entering the warning track. He then slowed down and set it up to look like an experienced midfielder. Not a converted shortstop. He completely timed his jump, crossed the yellow line, brought back the home run, literally saving the run.

Indeed, it is athletic and amazing.

Guess here? The home run is impressive, but the center's script is even better. But the appearance of his bat should not be discounted. In the fourth inning, Baz flew to the warning track of the midfield, another explosion. Another good sign.

Casey Mize

Casey Mize bent over in seven innings to keep the Tigers in this game.

He gave up a pair of home runs when Los Angeles led 4-2. Logan O'Hoppe was centered in the second inning and Jorge Soler hit two home runs in the third inning.

But Mize got out of trouble thanks to some excellent defensive performances.

In the fourth round, the angels let the two guys go. But when the Tigers scored almost three games, he got rid of it. They showed up the troops in the third and second time, but came too late at the first base. Still basically ended the threat.

Then, Baez brought back the home run. Metz looked relieved and he didn't respond.

When he left the game, the Tigers were behind 4-2, but they rebounded and Metz actually won the victory.

Where is Mike Trout?

Angel Right Fielder Mike Trout didn't start because of a knee injury. The Trout lost 9-3 to the Seattle Mariners on April 30 but left the game due to a sore knee.

This is the same as the trout had two surgeries last season. Los Angeles says his knee is getting more evaluations. Trout is a three-time MVP and has played in all 29 games before the game against the Tigers on May 1.

Welcome to the show, Tyler Owens

After the tiger cut off Kenta Maeda, they raised Tyler Owens.

He made his debut in ninth place, leading 10-4. After gaining a few seats, he gave up one. But then, Kyren Paris flew to Baez to finish the game.
