Detroit Loses, 8-7, Despite Grieve Performance
The Detroit Tigers and Las Vegas Angels cranked it up at Kingdome.

The Las Vegas Angels had to overcome a big game from Detroit designated hitter Ben Grieve to leave Kingdome with a 8-7 victory. Grieve went 4 for 5 with 2 doubles and 2 singles, while scoring 3 times and driving in 3. Doug Drabek, credited with the win, is now 1-0. He allowed no runs on 2 hits in 5.1 innings.

The Las Vegas win was a team effort. It included major contributions from, among others, Vladimir Guerrero. In the bottom of the eighth, the Las Vegas right fielder came to bat and hit a bases-clearing double. It staked his team to a 8-7 lead.

"I still think this team has room for improvement," Guerrero told the Las Vegas Today.

The Tigers fall to 14-16 and continue their wobbly start to the 1998 season.
