Grand Tour for Granderson
Curtis Granderson hit a ball off the wall in center field in Anaheim and never stopped running. I-Rod and Carlos Pena score easily, and there's not even a play on Curtis as he scores easily on the inside the park home run. That gives the Tigers a 4-2 lead.
Vlad leads off the bottm of the 4th with his second homer of the game. He didn't need to run fast on that one. It's 4-3 Tigers in the bottom of the fourth, the Angels needing a win to keep from dropping into a tie for first place in the AL West.
It looks like Gunderson stole a home run from Molina. It was a great catch against the wall. In the space of a few batters he gave the Tigers the lead and helped them keep it.
That was one of many lousy plays that should have been called Angel errors. Figgins misjudged the fly ball, then had trouble picking it up, and made a weak throw to SECOND - and Gunderson was already rounding third by that time. Another very frustrating night for us Angel fans. (Especially when between innings, they were playing clips of many of the great plays the Angels have made this year)
