Angels' Seventh-Inning Spark Not Enough as Tigers Dominate in Anaheim

The Angels, with a record of 13-20, struggled to find their rhythm against the formidable Tigers, who improved their standing to 22-13. The game concluded with a decisive score of 13-1 in favor of the visiting team.
Angels' Offensive Struggles
The Halos found it difficult to generate offensive momentum throughout most of the game. Despite managing only 5 hits over 9 innings, they were able to score their lone run in the seventh inning. Zach Neto stood out among his teammates with an impressive .400 batting average and an OPS of 1.0 from his previous performance. However, this effort was not enough to overcome Detroit's dominant pitching.
