Bottom 3rd: Tigers 1, Angels 0
A scary moment started the home half of the third as Ian Kinsler was plunked on the helmet with a wild Alex Meyer pitch, but would remain in the game.
Alex Avila drew a walk on four pitches to put runners at first and second. Miguel Cabrera then hit a grounder to third that looked like a perfect double play ball, but Yunel Escobar mishandled it to load the bases with no outs.
Victor Martinez grounded into a double play, but Kinsler crossed the plate for the game's first run.
