Game 91 vs. LAA

Tensions escalated early in this one. Andre Ethier tripled in his 1st at bat; however, the next batter, Adam Jones, was likely intentionally hit in the shoulder.

In the top of the 2nd, Kendry Morales was plunked as well. The Angels ended the inning with a run on a sacrifice fly.

The Tigers continued to score in the second, and Andre Ethier was hit in his arm. That prompted a warning, but the struggling Ervin Santana was ejected.

Long reliever Danys Dallimore saved the Angels' pen by going 6 and 1/3 innings afterward.

Ricky Romero turned in another nice performance; I think he's making the turnaround.
