The Tigers had a tougher test in lefty Tyler Anderson as they looked to avoid the sweep in Anaheim. Casey Mize spun another gem, and the Tigers knocked Anderson out early and on this day, got good work from the bullpen to hold the lead. That is, until the ninth inning, when Shelby Miller was rocked for two home runs and five runs total to nearly blow the game. Instead, they held on to win 7-6, but no one left this one feeling very good about it.
After another tough loss, the Tigers got started quickly on Sunday.
