GAME LOG
DETROIT (AP) _ Scott Schoeneweis shut out Detroit on two singles for eight innings and the Anaheim Angels stopped a season-high six-game losing streak, defeating the Tigers 1-0 Wednesday night. Mo Vaughn drove in the lone run with an RBI grounder in the third inning. Troy Glaus tied an Angels record with three doubles. Schoeneweis and reliever Troy Percival combined to hand the Tigers their major league-leading 12th shutout. Schoeneweis (7-7) struck out six and walked two. Percival pitched a hitless ninth for his 26th save. Steve Sparks (6-3), selected earlier in the day as the AL Pitcher of the Month, had his five-game winning streak stopped. Sparks gave up seven hits over eight innings. He struck out three and walked two. Kevin Stocker walked to start the Angels third, moved up on Scott Spiezio's double and scored on Vaughn's grounder to second. Schoeneweis made that run stand up against the Tigers, who had won their last 10 games against left-handed starters. Schoeneweis breezed through the first six innings, facing the minimum 18 batters. Brad Ausmus led off the third with a single, but was erased on a double play. Detroit loaded the bases with one out in the seventh on two walks and a single by Bobby Higginson. But Schoeneweis struck out Wendell Magee and got Deivi Cruz on an inning-ending grounder. Shane Halter, starting at first base for Detroit in place of Tony Clark, who is being used sparingly after returning from a bad back, saved a run in the second. He made a strong throw home to nip Garret Anderson, who tried to slide home on Adam Kennedy's infield grounder in the second. Troy Glaus doubled in the Anaheim ninth and was sacrificed to third by Kennedy. Bengie Molina missed a suicide-squeeze bunt and Glaus was tagged out. Notes: The Tigers led the majors in shutouts last season with 12. ... By winning, the Angels avoided going three games below .500 for the first time. ... Glaus hit three doubles in a game for the second time this year.
