Loss Extends Detroit Losing Streak
Las Vegas Angels starter Rolando Arrojo pitched effectively against the Detroit Tigers at Tiger Stadium. The right-hander spearheaded his team's 5-2 win. In 7.1 innings, Arrojo surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 4. He allowed 2 runs. The first-place Angels have won 6 in a row.

Las Vegas needed the clutch hitting of Ken Griffey Jr. to notch the win. The center fielder hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Angels on top, 3-1. For the game, Griffey Jr. had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"Everyone's trying too hard," said losing manager Julio Izquierdo. "If we learn to relax, we'll be fine."
