Tigers defeat Angels 10-4 in series opener

News summary

The Detroit Tigers are off to one of their best starts in franchise history, currently leading the AL Central and boasting the American League's best record despite not topping major offensive categories. Their recent victory over the Los Angeles Angels, marked by an explosive late-inning rally and strong performances from players like Dillon Dingler and Spencer Torkelson, exemplifies their resilience and opportunistic play. Key contributors include Torkelson, who leads the team in home runs and RBIs, and ace pitchers Tarik Skubal and Casey Mize, with Mize recently securing his fifth win. The Tigers' aggressive baserunning—taking extra bases rather than stealing—has become a defining element of their identity and a key factor in their success. Manager AJ Hinch and third base coach Joey Cora have instilled this philosophy, which has helped the team capitalize on scoring opportunities. As a result, Detroit enjoys a strong 13-3 home record, their best start in Detroit since 1911.
