Angels 5, Tigers 0: Davis Daniel dominates Tigers in his first major league start

Jack Flaherty had a rough night, surrendering three home runs while his offense struggled with right-hander Davis Daniel in his major league debut as a starter. The Tigers managed just four hits and no walks as the Angels cruised to a 5-0 victory in the first of four in Anaheim.

The Tigers swung the bats well against RHP Davis Daniel, making just his fourth total MLB appearance at age 27, in the first inning. Yet they came away with nothing to show for it, and from there Daniel owned them the rest of the night. An eight inning shutout in your first start, at age 27 no less, is pretty impressive.
