Gibson had a big evening at the plate. He lofted a solo-blast 'downtown' in
the 1st inning, smashed a bases-empty homer in the 3rd inning and doubled
resulting in a run in the 4th inning. Detroit had 12 hits for the night.
It was the 2nd shutout of the year for Tanana(13-7). Mike Witt(8-13) was the
loser. He allowed 4 homeruns in 6 and 2/3 innings of work.
With this win, Detroit has a 72-51 record. They have been 6-4 lately.
California can't seem to snap out of their recent 'funk'. Now they have a
miserable 2-8 record over the last couple weeks.
