Tigers waste 8-run lead as Angels complete sweep

Detroit — It was like watching a team get bled out.

The Tigers led 10-2 going into the sixth inning Thursday afternoon, poised to salvage one of three against the Angels. Instead, the Angels rallied for 11 runs in the final four innings, taking a most improbable and, for the Tigers, hard to swallow, 13-10 win at Comerica Park.

The Tigers' Daz Cameron and Angels shortstop Jose Iglesias, right, race to second base. Cameron was out on the play.

The winning blow was struck by Angels catcher Max Stassi off reliever Michael Fulmer in the top of the eighth, but by that point it felt almost inevitable, the game had been slipping away for three innings.
