Loss Extends Detroit Losing Streak
Los Angeles rode a fine outing from starter Ramiro Mendoza to victory over the Detroit Tigers at Dodger Stadium. The final score was 7-2. Detroit is in the throes of a 11-game skid.

Rafael Palmeiro, who is tied for 10th in the UL in total bases with 286, chipped in for Los Angeles with a 2-run home run in the bottom of the first. For the game, the first baseman had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 4 RBI.

"We bring energy to every game," said losing manager Julio Izquierdo. "But it's got to translate into wins."
