Detroit — The Saturday attendance at Comerica Park was 23,581 — thousands more of which, certainly, came to see Shohei Ohtani than, say, Victor Reyes, Kody Clemens or Tyler Alexander.
But Reyes, with a two-out, go-ahead single and a fine diving catch, and Clemens, with a double and single coming off the bench for an injured Jonathan Schoop, helped lead the Tigers to a 4-3 win over the Los Angeles Angels to even the three-game series at a one-run win apiece.
Alexander (3-7) gave up three runs on six hits through the first three innings and appeared headed for a short day, until he was nearly flawless over the next three innings.
