Tigers Drop Dodgers with Late Score
Detroit and Los Angeles met in a late-season matchup at Dodger Stadium.

Detroit pitcher Steve Trachsel did his part in helping his team beat the Los Angeles Dodgers, 7-3. The right-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. Detroit is 5th in the United League East Division with a record of 68-82.

Detroit used the clutch hitting of Robby Thompson to capture the win. The shortstop drilled a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to give the Tigers the lead, 5-3. For the game, Thompson had 1 single and 1 double in 4 at-bats.

"I was determined to go the distance," said Trachsel.
