Detmers earns first home win with 11 K's in 8 scoreless frames
Los Angeles Angels left-hander Reid Detmers pitched eight scoreless innings, striking out eleven batters and allowing only two hits without issuing a walk to secure a 1-0 victory over the Kansas City Royals at Angel Stadium. The performance marked Detmers' first home win of the season and snapped a nine-start winless skid. The game remained scoreless until the bottom of the eighth inning when Nolan Schanuel drove in pinch-runner Jose Siri with an RBI single. Ben Joyce pitched a scoreless ninth inning to pick up his second save of the season. Detmers, who stayed with the Angels through the trade deadline, lowered his season ERA to 3.78 across 25 starts. Kansas City starter Randy Dobnak also excelled, pitching 5.2 scoreless innings before handing the game over to the bullpen, where Nate Pearson suffered the loss.
