 LA has gone 30-13 (.698) against the Tigers since 2013, the best record between any American League opponents over that span. The Angels are 17-4 in home games against the Tigers over that span.

 The Tigers have lost six straight games, scoring two runs or fewer in every game. There has only been one longer streak of games with two runs or fewer in MLB this season (Marlins, seven), and the Tigers' last longer streak came in 2005 (eight straight).

 The Angels have homered in eight straight games, and over that span (since July 20) the team is averaging 2.13 homers per game, third most in MLB. Angels' pitchers have also only allowed seven home runs over this span, the fewest by any American League team.

 Through 100 games this season, Mike Trout has 82 runs, 85 RBI and 34 home runs. He's the first player with 80+ runs, 80+ RBI and 30+ home runs through 100 games since Alex Rodriguez in 2007.

 In his first nine MLB games, Matt Thaiss went 3-for-27 (.111) with one home run and four RBI. In his last three games, Thaiss is 4-for-10 (.400) with three home runs and five RBI.

 Niko Goodrum is on an eight-game hitting streak, one shy of his career high, and he's hitting .346 since the All-Star break after hitting .235 prior to the break. The only MLB qualifier in the AL Central with a larger improvement in batting average since the break is Jose Ramirez (.218 pre-ASB; .366 post-ASB).

Griffin Canning (3-6, 5.15 ERA) will start for the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday against the Detroit Tigers, and he's hoping a minor adjustment he made in his last start will carry over to the second game of this series.
That adjustment, Canning acknowledged, might be mental as much as anything.

Angels' Canning takes aim at Tigers

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP)  Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani are the Los Angeles' Angels top players, but it was a pair of rookies who came up big in Tuesday night's 6-1 victory over the Detroit Tigers.
Matt Thaiss homered and drove in three runs while Griffin Canning threw four-hit ball over six innings as the Angels put together a good game in what has been a disappointing homestand against two of the worst teams in the American League.
